Chau Gong - 50cm

The Chinese people have used gongs as a ritual instrument for thousands of years. The Chau gong adds depth and a special percussion effect to any music. This gong is crafted from one cast piece, hand-hammered using century-old traditions. The Chau Gong was used to announce the arrival of a government official, warning people to clear the street, much as a police siren is used today. You will appreciate the deep, reverberating sounds and creative opportunities the Chau Gong offers. When the gong is struck, the vibrations can be felt without even touching the gong, physically effecting the body as the vibrations penetrate our entire being. The sound is intriguing for people with and without special needs. Strikong the gong with a gap between strikes, creates a relaxed, meditative energy to whoever hears it. Made of bronze, variations of the chau gong are available in different sizes:

• 50cm diameter
• 70cm diameter
• 95cm diameter
