Celebrating the rituals of spring, this chime is tuned to the notes of the opening theme of igor Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Stravinsky's Rite of Spring lends itself well to the randomness of a chime played by the wind. This composition, which created a riot at its premiere in Paris in 1913, has had a profound influence on music to this day. Putting this windchime out could be your own spring ritual. Or leave it out year round for music in all seasons. Woodstock stands behind every product they make with a one-year & a lifetime tuning on their musically tuned chimes. Tuned to beautiful melodies & scales from around the world & available in a wide range of styles, songs & sizes, you can choose the Woodstock Chime that speaks to your soul. How it all began - Garry & his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, in 1979 & It remains a family-owned business in New York's Hudson Valley. Grammy award-winning musician Garry Kvistad created the first Woodstock Chime from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician & 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 & tune the lawn chair chime tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime & is still one of our bestselling wind chimes.
