Wie groß ist der Unterschied zwischen Premium und Standardoberfläche?
Die Premiumoberfläche wird 3-4 x geölt, zwischengeschliffen und poliert. Dadurch ist sie noch etwas robuster und die Oberfläche ist sehr glatt und hat einen etwas stärkeren Glanz. Wir empfehlen diese Behandlung allen, die planen das Instrument viel zu transportieren.
Die Standardoberfläche wird nur 1 x geölt und poliert, hat aber auch einen absolut ausreichenden, dauerhaften Schutz und eine schöne glatte Oberfläche.
Sound miracle of improvisation
The Ko-ta-mo is a mixture of three different instruments: Koto, Tambura and Monochord. The monochord goes back to Pythagoras and is therefore of European origin, the Tambura is an Indian accompanying instrument and the Koto is a Japanese melody instrument.
The way of playing is relatively simple. From the very first moment you can coax beautiful sounds out of the instrument.
Of course, you can also combine the Kotamo with classical instruments such as guitar or violin, which often creates completely new sound spaces and ideas.
The three instruments can be played excellently at the same time. You can play the fundamental note on the tambura and the monochord with your left hand and play melodies on the koto with your right hand at the same time. If you tune the koto so that all the notes match the fundamental note, you can improvise completely freely and without having to think.
