The OTTO is a freestanding tubular bells installation consisting of 10 tuned metal tubes of different lengths suspended in a circular frame. The longer the tube the lower the sound it produces. Includes 2 mallets permanently attached to the frame.
The instrument itself is characterised by high frequencies and a subtle range of aliquot tones (higher harmonics). To enjoy the mesmerising tone of tubular bells, you must strike them in the middle with mallets to produce a sound. Even the simplest, intuitively struck rhythm will produce an interesting tune. Two people at most can play the Otto tubular bells. It is a good idea to add other instruments such as the Monk Bells or the Wind Piano to create music together with others. The circular frame measures 175cm diameter. Note: The mallets are attached to the instrument with armed (steel) rope.
Note: Full instructions and specifications are included for your preferred installer.
The instrument can be fixed to the ground with two anchoring systems:
Flat Anchor (this model) – the best solution to install instruments on hard surfaces (e.g. concrete).
In Ground Anchor - See #10906 Tubular Bells OTTO Installation (In Ground Anchor) – ensures a professional and stable installation of the instruments on soft surfaces (e.g. lawn, sand).
Note: The OTTO is available as a backordered item only.
