African kalimbas and karimbas
Want to play hymns on the kalimba? The kalimba has a heavenly sound, much like a harp, and the instrument really lends itself to playing hymns. While some hymns require a few notes out of the key, there are a great many hymns that can be played perfectly well on the Hugh Tracey Alto and Treble kalimbas. Hymnals with tablature for 50 Christian hymns are available for either of these kalimbas for $15. Perfect for playing with a church choir, or for comforting the ill or dying. In my heaven, the angels play kalimba!
