Wuhan Wind Gongs with Gong Mallet

View full details

The Wuhan Wind gong — sometimes called a feng or Chinese lion gong — is the bright, immediate cousin of the Chau. Flat, untuned and without a rolled rim, it speaks the instant it is struck: a fast metallic crash that swells into a shimmering, cymbal-like wash and fades quickly. Where a Chau blooms slowly and hangs in the air, a Wind gong arrives all at once.

Each gong starts as a bronze casting and is hand-hammered out to its finished diameter in Wuhan, China. The polished face darkens and patinas with use, which most players consider part of the instrument's character.

Choosing a size

  • 8" to 12" — bright and cutting. Drum kit accents, studio colour, effects work.
  • 16" to 22" — the working range. Big enough for orchestral crashes and sound baths, small enough to move.
  • 28" — broad, dramatic, and loud. Concert and installation work.

Included

Every size ships with a gong mallet and suspension rope. A stand is not included — see our gong stands for a match to your size.
