About the Aeolian scale:

The Aeolian scale, also known as the natural minor, is one of the seven modes of Western music and is often used for melodies that have a melancholic or mystical sound. This scale in A minor includes the notes A, B, C, D, E, F and G and follows the interval pattern: whole tone – semitone – whole tone – whole tone – half tone – whole tone – whole tone. The Hluru travel tongue drum uses specially selected tones of this scale (A3, B3, C4, E4, F4, A4, B4, C5) that create a harmonious and ethereal soundscape. This combination of tones is particularly suitable for calm, meditative music and invites intuitive playing styles and creative improvisation – ideal for beginners and experienced musicians alike.
