Giant Wind Chimes

The quarter-inch pipes are between 6 and 9 feet long with a diameter of six-and-a-half inches. They produce the most beautiful tones I’ve ever heard, soft and sweet. The entire instrument, tuned to a pentonic scale in D, is about 16 feet tall, weighs 400 pounds and is currently accessible to the public in a huge maple tree, 1718 Palm Ave, Chico CA.

The artist who created this magnificent piece is Gregg Payne. He is also responsible for this giant xylophone in Wildwood Park, Chico CA. (below)

Thank you Gregg. I wish you lived in Santa Fe!
