****How to play the Singing bowl****
1. Hold the Singing Bowl on the palm of your left hand. For smaller bowls ( 7 inches and under ) hold on your fingertips.
2. Hold the mallet about mid length, with all your fingertips facing downwards and touching the wood, and palm downwards.
3. Gently tap the mallet against the side of the bowl to “warm up” the bell
4. With an even pressure, rub the mallet clockwise around the rim of the bowl. Use a full arm movement, just like stirring a big kettle of soup, and keep the mallet straight up and down ( full arm movement )
Remember to apply pressure because the friction of the mallet against the outer rim produces vibrations which results in sound.
Experiment with your speed. Usually people go to fast!!! Let the sound build up slowly as the singing bowl picks up the vibration.
