Product Details
|
Ergonomically shaped to be stable on one’s lap, all the strings can be reached by both hands while the lyre is balanced on the wrists. The Season’s Lyre is responsive to the player's touch and, thus, requires less effort to evoke the instrument's great potential.
This lyre was designed to create consonance between the organic form and the dynamic sound. The rounded form has an expansive, full-bodied, moving, modulated tone. There are brighter, lighter and more peripheral sounds that unite the individual expressiveness of the inner tone with a new deep, warm, spatial expression. As with all of the Eyster Lyres the strings are suspended in perfect balance to the soundboard.
Our lyre is made from one solid piece of cherry wood and comes complete with an extra set of strings, turning wrench, felt accessory pouch, and a booklet that discusses the care and use of the lyre.
