Kalimba

A kalimba is a musical instrument also known as a thumb piano. It consists of a wooden board or box with attached metal tines of varying lengths. When you pluck these tines with your thumbs or fingers, they vibrate and produce musical notes. The length and thickness of each tine determine the pitch. Kalimbas are simple to play and portable, often used in traditional African music, but they’ve become popular worldwide for their soothing, melodic sound. They provide an easy way for beginners to create music and explore harmony, making them both accessible and versatile.
