Welcome to FluffyAudio RARITIES #3!
“RARITIES“, ten collectible cards featuring some of the strangest or rarest instruments we came across so far, a little collection of crazy and fun instruments to play with!
Our RARITIES #3 is the Khim!
The history of Khim meets many countries: first Persia, then China, then brought to Thailand and finally introduced to Lao and Cambodia. It derives from the Persian santur and is similar to the hammered dulcimer or cimbalom. The Khim is made up of fourteen string triplets, each triplet composing what is called a note. It’s played with two flexible bamboo sticks with soft leather beater at the tips to produce a soft tone, the sound is brilliant but also very engaging, try to believe!
