GROTTA SONORA GONGS
Our gongs and sound sculptures are built in our cave in Italy. We have created MANY of different designs to be used for customizing each gong. The look of our gongs reflects our search for a rich and colorful sound. As musicians we like to tune our gongs to unique resonance effects.
This gong has folded rim, which allows the fundamental tone, or heart, to resonate more and maintain a presence in the overall sound.
Available in sizes: 65 cm/26”, 85 cm/34” and 95 cm/38 “.

OUR DESIGNS
Our gongs and sound sculptures are built in our laboratory in Italy.
We have created several different designs to customize each gong.
The look of our gongs reflects our research for a rich and colorful sound.
As musicians we like to tune our gongs with harmonic sounds, where the fundamental note and the overtones are in harmony, creating unique resonance effects.
