Encore Collection 5 in. Encore Water Bell Fountain, Brass Wind Bell WEWBF

The rhythmic and random sounds of the Woodstock Water Bell Fountain are reminiscent of the natural sounds of a gently flowing stream. Adapted from an original and copyrighted design by artist and musician Ron Snider, it is handcrafted using solid brass bells for excellent sound. Water bubbling up from the center of the fountain in this attractive flamed-finish copper bowl causes two floating bells to gently swirl around six fixed bells, ringing softly when they meet. An adjustable pump lets you control the water flow and frequency of ringing. This musical fountain helps create a beautiful oasis in your home. It flourishes as a centerpiece or accent and will fill your surroundings with joy and tranquility.In 1979, the first Woodstock Chime was created by founder Garry Kvistad from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician and instrument designer, he was fascinated by the Scales of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can't be played on a modern piano. Garry had the idea to cut and tune the lawn chair chime tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our bestselling wind chimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, Inc. in 1979 and it remains a based in New York's Hudson Valley.

Chinese instrument makers have made gongs for thousands of years and are deserving of their reputation for making the best in the world. Many processes go into creating the special sound of a Chinese gong, including fine toning as a result of hand-hammering. In Chinese temples, gongs are struck 108 times because it's believed that sentient beings have 108 types of worries. The teaching is this: upon hearing the gong, worries will cease, wisdom will grow. Nothing has the ability to transport us to another time and place quite like the brilliant resonance of a gong. For over a thousand years, gongs of various types have played an important role in both the religious and secular music of many Asian cultures. Gongs were sounded to chase away evil spirits, warn of invading armies, heal the sick and invoke the spirits of the dead. Handcrafted using traditional methods, Woodstock Gongs bring the ancient wonders of the Far East home.WOODSTOCK CHIMES THE ORIGINAL MUSICALLY TUNED WIND CHIMES.
