The Chromatic Mallet Harp may very well be the only xylophone a musician ever needs. This is AJ from Didge Project here, and I have been playing the Chromatic Mallet Harp now for over a year and I am very excited to make it available to the public. Throughout the past four years or so, I’ve been spending a lot of time playing handpans and RAV Drums, which I still love to this day.

With handpans this is quite limited, as you are basically relegated to the scale that the pan is in and the chords that you can create with it. Now there are some “mutant” handpans on the market now, which give players more harmonic options by having a wider variety of notes to choose from, however, the Chromatic Mallet Harp is a much more elegant solution to this issue...

| Didge
Project is a blog, youtube channel, series of courses and events,
instrument store and a collective of musicians who want to help you use
music as a tool for uplifting yourself and others around you.
On
our site you will find tips and tutorials to help you become a better
musician, didgeridoo lessons, instrument features and reviews, and
reports on the latest scientific research and spiritual discoveries
merging through the medium of sound.
When
we began in 2008 our main focus was on teaching how to play the
didgeridoo, a wind instrument originating in aboriginal Australia and
also said to be present in ancient Mayan times. After working with
countless people it became apparent that most musicians play multiple
instruments and that we have the community resources to help all
musicians get better results. While we still provide didgeridoo lessons,
classes and programs, our focus is to provide tutorials for music and
instruments from all around the world. Visit us for great music
