Description
Tuned to the opening phrase of Debussy's Clair de Lune. This Clair de Lune Wind Chime is tuned to the opening phrase of Clair de Lune, a distinctive melody made up of seven two-note chords. To replicate this, the chime was designed with two different sized clappers, so both the upper and lower tubes are struck at the same time. In this way, it plays “double stops,†or two notes at one time. Clair de Lune translates to “Light of the Moon†or “Moonlight†and is the third movement of the suite bergamasque, one of the most famous piano suites composed by Claude Debussy. First written around 1890, when Debussy was only 28, this melody was used for the Bellagio Fountain scene at the end of Ocean’s Eleven. A true original, there’s no other wind chime designed to play chords in this way.
