How to Play Metal Tibetan Singing Bowls

To play a metal Tibetan singing bowl, place it on one hand keeping your hand flat. Alternatively some people find it easier to hold bowls on their fingertips avoiding touching its sides. Move the playing stick around the outside rim of the bowl using fairly firm pressure.

You will feel the vibration build up through your hand and start to hear the bowl sing. You can continue with this to get an even ringing tone or stop playing at this point lift the bowl up to your ear to hear the beautiful and complex sound that it makes.

The bowl can also be played by tapping the rim with the stick. Bowls have many uses including meditation and balancing chakras.

The note and tone of some bowls may be changed by putting in a little water and then playing the bowl. Gently swirling the water around as the bowl is played produces interesting effects. It is best to use spring or bottled water when doing this.

How to Choose a Metal Tibetan Singing Bowl

To some extent this is a matter of personal taste. Heavier Tibetan singing bowls play deeper sounds and have a longer lasting resonance than lighter bowls.

Machine made metal bowls are generally easy to play and especially good for children. They tend to be very consistent in size and are usually polished.

Hand beaten bowls have more complex and overtone rich range of sounds but there is more of a knack to playing them than with machine made bowls. These traditional Tibetan bowls are sold by weight and the size and shape can vary a lot.
