A Beautiful Work of Music and of Art

Product picture

This quena is a real work of art. I'm happy that I now have it in my home. I haven't figured out how to play it, but there are directions. I will figure it out!

Beautiful sounds!

Got this for my musician spouse, and he loves playing it. Truly makes a unique, beautiful sound. We use one at church to open times of prayer and mediation, and now we can use it home too. Beautifully crafted, an excellent piece of art and music combined.

Tuned bone mouth Jacaranda Quena

Product picture

Quena and carrying case are beautiful, very well made, the service was excellent and the instrument arrived exactly when expected. I am new to playing quena, professional on other instruments. This instrument plays in tune. With my beginning player skill level I got an F# major scale for the bottom octave (the instrument will play higher with a more skilled player). Therefore I was able to play Amazing Grace in B major, using the bottom octave of the quena. The tip to use the pinkie to hold the quena when the holes are uncovered came in very handy for the top notes of the song. The quena is resonant and produces a wonderful rich tone. My daughter loved it so the quena is hers now. I need to save up for one for me or borrow it back! Thank you Benito for making this wonderful instrument. We love it. I hope you are able to continue making traditional instruments.
