Meinl - 16" Steel Tongue Drum (Octave)

Katia de Peyer $ 92.30
Description The Meinl Sonic Energy Octave Steel Tongue Drum is made of high-quality stainless steel. It has a central bass note in the middle plus eight more notes around it. These eight notes consist of two reeds each that deliver the tone in two octaves. This creates a wonderful, meditative sound similar to the tone of a handpan. At the bottom of the drum you will find the sound hole, which can be closed with a silicon plug to make the sound even more compact. There are also three silicone feet at the bottom to keep the drum from slipping. You can play the Octave Steel Tongue Drum with mallets or with your fingers. Just place it on a plain surface or on your lap to start playing. The drum includes two wooden mallets with rubber head and a nice carrying bag with zipper and handle. – Features: – Handpan-like sound – Anti-slip feet – Decorative linen/nylon cord – Tuning options: D Kurd (Black) – A4/a’ 440 Hz / D3/ A3, Bb3, C4, D4, E4, F4, G4, A4 D Amara (Navy Blue) – A4/a’ 440 Hz / D3/ A3, C4, D4, E4, F4, G4, A4, C5 – Weight: 3210g / 113.23oz – Material: Coated stainless steel – Colour: Black or Navy Blue – Size: 16″ – Includes: Duty nylon bag & Wooden mallet pair with rubber heads   Listen to the Meinl – Steel Tongue Drum 16″ (Octave) – D Kurd   Listen to the Meinl – Steel Tongue Drum 16″ (Octave) – D Amara

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
