Scale on Lower Tines of the Karimba

This exercise, from the upcoming book Playing the Hugh Tracey Karimba, traces out segments of the scale as played on the lower row of tines on the karimba.

At the top, we just point out the two notes that are the same. The right-most note is missing in ancient karimbas, but is present in some modern day karimbas, including the Hugh Tracey karimba.
