Every other gong in the series takes us elsewhere — to distant planets, to celestial bodies we'll never see up close, to cycles that outlast any human life. The Earth Gong brings us back here. Earth's orbit around the Sun — 365 days, the cycle that marks every year of our existence — translated into frequency by Hans Cousto: 68.05 Hz, note C#2. This sound's 4th harmonic octave is 432.10 Hz: extraordinarily close to the famous A at 432 Hz, the tuning many sound researchers consider the most natural and consonant with biological rhythms. That's no coincidence. It's cosmic mathematics.

A real recording of the instrument — close your eyes and let the sound arrive before the mind does.
The sound of the Earth — the cycle we live every year
Earth takes 365 days and 6 hours to complete one orbit around the Sun. Hans Cousto translated this cycle into frequency: 68.05 Hz — note C#2. It's the sound of the planet we live on, of the year we know, of the cycle that marks the seasons and life itself. The 4th harmonic octave is 432.10 Hz — extraordinarily close to the 432 Hz frequency many sound researchers consider the tuning most consonant with natural rhythms. A sound that doesn't need to be sought far away: it's already here, beneath our feet.
- ✦ Frequency 68.05 Hz — note C#2, calculated by Hans Cousto from Earth's annual orbit
- ✦ 4th octave at 432.10 Hz — remarkably close to the A at 432 Hz, a natural tuning at the center of debate in sound research
- ✦ Warm, deep, grounded timbre — an extremely low sound with an immediate earthy quality, enveloping and stable
- ✦ 38" diameter — one of the largest sizes in the series, a vast sound field and a total physical presence
