Woodstock Chimes BJC Baja Chime, Fine Tuned
Tuned to the rich, deep tones of the guitarrón , a Mexican bass guitar. In Baja the clear blue waters are spectacular, the local cuisine outstanding, and the people friendly and kind. It's the kind of place one could get used to. Our Chimes of Baja are tuned to the bass guitar essential to mariachi bands. Hearing these wind chimes play in the breeze will bring to mind the festive sounds of Mexico at night. With this windchime you can go on vacation every day! In 1979, Grammy Award-winning musician and instrument designer Garry Kvistad created the first Woodstock Chime from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. Fascinated by the Scale of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can’t be played on a modern piano, Garry cut and tuned the lawn chair 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 best selling, musically-tuned windchimes. Garry and his wife Diane still develop the chimes today as part of their family-owned business in New York’s Hudson Valley. Woodstock Chimes - The World's Favorite Windchime.
