How to Paste Stickers?

We usually paste color stickers on the keys to make it easier to find the keys quickly when reading the music notation of Kalimba. First, You’ll paste a color sticker on the longest key in the middle, and then paste another color sticker on the keys every two keys. You’ll also label your Kalimba any way you like.

Hold and Play Kalimba

Hold the Kalimba in both hands and pluck the keys with the nails of thumb (as shown in the picture). It is recommended that the length of your nails be 2-3 mm, and the proper strength and angle when playing the thumb piano can make the sounds clean. As you familiarize yourself with the position of the Kalimba keys, You’ll play some complex but more wonderful songs with some playing techniques, such as double-tone or glissando playing different keys at the same time to make sounds.

Using the Glissando to Play Chords

The glissando is a technique by which you pluck several keys at once to make a chord. Compared with other musical instruments, Kalimba is set up to play chords nicely and easily. Any 3 adjacent tines will play a wonderful triad chord – we use the nail slides through the thumb piano keys to make a sound. Furthermore, a chord produced by a glissando will ring for several seconds, which will enable you to play a melody on the other keys, and produce some gentle harmony. This makes beautiful music, simply.

Wah-wah Performance

Kalimba has a main sound hole and two auxiliary sound holes. When you play, You’ll press your thumb into the main sound hole, which feels like you need to push the sound back, or use two middle fingers to shake on the back auxiliary sound holes to produce a Wah-wah sound. You’ll even make three holes work together at the same time, and the wah effect will be more obvious.
