Standalone Nature-Symphony component — 44, Layer 2

Standalone Nature-Symphony component — 44, Layer 2 — Lower of the two metal chimes layers of my Nature-Symphony 44 (https://freesound.org/people/Philip_Goddard/sounds/728285/ ), to which I refer you for full details.

This is the second of a series of particularly beautiful / striking individual layers taken from my Nature-Symphony oeuvre, which I intend to upload here (but probably not on YouTube). From Nature-Symphony 44 both metal chime layers were asking to be uploaded here. This layer is especially 'wow', at least for people who can abide such a slow and persistently 'weird' soundworld — on account of the strange and beautiful tuning variations and mismatches (read 'microtonal effects') that occur when wind chimes are so much reduced in pitch, then sounding little it at all like the chime sound at normal pitch.

To save me time, notes for each of these standalone individual layers will be brief and refer one to the full details on the page for the parent Nature-Symphony.

Chimes used:

1. Music of the Spheres Gypsy Soprano (6 tubes, tuned to an Eastern European Gypsy scale)

2. Davis Blanchard The Blues (8 tubes, tuned to a laid-back sounding Blues scale)

Whereas Layer 1 was half-speed and an octave below original pitch, this layer, although also half-speed, is a minor seventh lower still — and it tells, most exquisitely!

Advisory
To get the best out of this, with its mass of detail, listen with high-grade headphones.

Two Davis Blanchard chimes being recorded in a previous session at the same spot; in this recording one of those was replaced with the Gypsy Soprano chime.

Please remember to give this recording a rating — Thank you!
