Guda Ortus Brass tongue pan combines a reach tone, good low end, excellent resonance and compact sizes. Ortus tongue drums have original goblet shape which provides a good sound volume even for compact instruments. Moreover, such shape is very comfy, especially when you hold Ortus on your lap. Brass top provides good lows and warm tone without any metallic "taste", while aluminum "goblet-shaped" bottom side provides huge resonace and loudness. Ortus tongue drum has the quality and loudness of sound that exceeds ones of the much larger drums, while its dimensions and weight are very small: only 35 cm (14") diameter and about 2 kg (4,5-5 pounds) weight
This major scale has good low end (the key of D). Lovely and flexible scale.
