Wind Gong
Wind gongs are flat bronze discs, with little fundamental pitch, heavy tuned overtones, and long sustain.
Description
Gong beater is included for free.
Wind gongs are flat bronze discs, with little fundamental pitch, heavy tuned overtones, and long sustain. They are made of electrolytic copper and tin. Traditionally, a wind gong is played with a large soft mallet, which gives it a roaring crash to match their namesake.
Played with a nylon tip drumstick they sound rather like the coil chimes in a mantle clock. Some have holes in the centre, but they are mounted like all suspended gongs by other holes near the rim. The smaller sizes (7"-12" /18 – 30 cms) have a more bell-like tone due to their thickness and small diameter.
And for each wind gong, there is a standard mallet.
