Track 17 from Saydisc "Percussion Around the World" - notes from Maureen Hanke.
Lullaby features Tibetan singing bowl and voice.
Tibetan singing bowls have a unique sound and are used as an aid for meditation. The bowls are made of an alloy of gold, silver, copper, bronze, tin, lead, iron and zinc. The sound is made by running a piece of wood around the rim of the bowl, rather like running your finger over the top of a wine glass.
( in a music session listen to the Lullaby and decide if you think it is an effective lullaby and why. Listen in particular for the musical ideas that are used and how they are linked to both the speed and the volume of the piece. How well do the bowl and voice combine?)
