Tobias J. Kaye

Tobias supplied sculptural wooden bowls to galleries worldwide since 1982. In 1986 a meditative image appeared for him of a string stretched inside. Since that moment Sounding Bowls have been in constant development. Now in private and public collections in many countries their sound has touched thousands. Singers also use Sounding Bowls for their intimate warmth of tone. Featured in books and magazines worldwide Sounding Bowls are unique in the history of world music on three or four particular counts. Every feature of a Sounding Bowl is part of the art. String patterns create beauty to the eye and tunes to the ear. Textured undersides add beauty to the touch, complementing sense with sense. Tobias also now runs day long workshops for people wanting deeper insights into the heart opening effects of playing a Sounding Bowl.
