Steel Tongue Drum Amara D Minor 9 Notes - Titanium Steel

Steel tongue drum with 9 notes - nitrided titanium steel, Amara / Celtic D minor

This tongue drum is tuned to Amara, also known as Celtic minor: a scale that does not follow the classical ladder but creates a particular mood, open and faintly wistful. Nine hand-tuned tongues on a nitrided titanium steel alloy, 35 cm across.

Amara / Celtic: the handpan players' scale

Amara is one of the most popular handpan scales. On a tongue drum it is rare. If you play a handpan, or plan to, you will find a familiar tuning here.

Nitrided titanium steel alloy

Nitriding hardens the surface and protects against corrosion. The tone is warmer and more focused than stainless steel.
