Benefits of the music created with the lyre are as great as it is easy to learn to play this instrument. It has a powerful calming effect, therefore it is very appreciated by parents and people who work with children.
Due to the pentatonic tuning, regardless of the order in which the sounds are played, the result will be harmonious. That’s why, even those who play for the first time can enjoy the music of the lyre by experimenting and improvising. As one deepens the study of the instrument, musical exercises and pieces can grow in complexity.

The joy of making music is supported by the bright and soothing sound and the intuitive playing technique.

All of our lyres are made of one piece of wood, selected for resonance, with no defects and structurally solid.
This particular instrument is made of Ash wood, often used for solid body musical instruments. The natural resonance of the wood results in a balanced tone that is sweet sounding, for defined lower notes to clear high notes.
The heartwood of some Ash trees has nice dark-on-light stripes that resemble Olive wood. We use mostly this part of the timber that is not only beautiful but also dense and strong, which helps with the resonance of the instrument and the rigidity against the string tension.

This instrument is polished carefully to allow the natural colors of the wood to shine through.
We finish the instrument with a few coats of Shellac. We use natural colored shellac for our ash instruments which ads a yellow – orange layer of color to the brown hues of the wood.
Naturally, wood grain and color vary with each instrument, each one being unique.
We use only high quality parts. The tuning pegs, tuning keys and strings are made in Germany.
