Must be heard! The unique acoustic effect makes Madame Butterfly soar! Our Magical Mystery Chimes feature a musical phenomenon known as octave doubling. Here's how it works - you remember the Do-Re-Me-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do scale from The Sound of Music? The "Do" notes at the start and end of this scale are the same note, an octave apart. Notes separated by an octave are considered harmonically equivalent and ""ring"" together in a way that adds a pleasing sound to the music. Our Magical Mystery Chimes take this theory to the extreme - each note of the chime is matched with its "octave double." This unique tuning heightens the harmonics never used in wind chimes, creating a song that must be heard and believed. Our Butterfly's Farewell Chime mirrors the lovely pentatonic melody at the climactic finale of Puccini's popular opera, Madame Butterfly. When all is lost, the leading soprano uses a full range of human emotions to express her intense passion to restore her honor as the music builds in this tragic love story.
