The Encore Wind Chimes of Neptune features an elegant wood topper and windcatcher with a rich bubinga finish that is weather-resistant and 6 high-quality satin green aluminum tubes that will not rust when exposed to the elements. Removable windcatcher for easy customization. Measuring 54-inches in overall length, this wind chime is designed and handcrafted for superior musical performance. Hand-tuned to a universal, pentatonic (five-note) scale, it acts in concert with the wind to create random patterns of wonderful sound. Harmonizes beautifully with all the other Encore Collection windchimes. This chime carries a lifetime tuning . More than 30-years ago, the first Woodstock Chime was created by founder and owner Garry Kvistad from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician and instrument designer, he was fascinated by the Scales of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can't be played on a modern piano. Garry had the idea to cut and tune the lawn chair chime tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our bestselling wind chimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, in 1979 and it remains in New York's Hudson Valley.
