Hokema Sansula Renaissance A minor – kalimba with robust REMO membrane, 9 tines, spherical floating tone, hand-crafted in Germany

Soft, overtone-rich celestial sounds – the premium Sansula by HOKEMA

The HOKEMA Sansula Renaissance in A minor invites you on a sonic journey from the very first plucked note. A patented evolution of the African kalimba, this handcrafted tongue instrument combines intuitive playing with a floating, meditative tone – ideal for sound relaxation, mindfulness, music therapy and anyone who wants to create beautiful sounds with no prior knowledge.

The secret behind the long sustain

When you pluck a tine, its vibration is first captured in a block of wood and then transferred to a sound membrane. As a result, each note rings out noticeably longer than on a conventional kalimba. The factory tuning in A minor places the octaves close together, so harmonious, overtone-rich sounds layer naturally and carry through the room.

The Renaissance – built to be played every day

What sets the Renaissance apart is its sound membrane made from a high-quality REMO synthetic drum head. It delivers a full, balanced sound while being extremely durable and unaffected by humidity. That makes this model the right choice when the instrument is played often, handled by children or used in schools, kindergartens and therapy. A body of solid American cherry and a frame of European beech give the tone warmth and a quality feel.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Enveloping tone: soft, overtone-rich sound with long sustain thanks to the patented membrane principle.
• Robust REMO membrane: durable and humidity-resistant – forgiving for inexperienced and small hands alike.
• Playable right away: plucked with the thumbs, it sounds harmonious without any prior knowledge, in a calming A minor tuning.
• Quality materials: solid American cherry, frame of European beech.
• Compact and light: around 320 g and a handy size to take anywhere.

Playing tip

Pluck the tines gently with your thumbs and let the membrane ring out freely. To shape the sound, hold the instrument just above a smooth surface while playing or lift it briefly – this creates the signature undulating wah-wah effect.

That can happen to anyone: You buy something with a firm conviction and realize afterwards that the product you bought does not meet your expectations.
