About Song

"Big Fish" (Da Yu) is the breathtaking theme song from the animated movie Big Fish & Begonia. Its melody is deeply emotional, ethereal, and flowing, making it one of the most beautiful songs you can play on a Kalimba.

Why it fits the Kalimba:

  • Ethereal Sound: The song's original instrumentation (flute and piano) translates perfectly to the bell-like tone of the thumb piano.
  • Pentatonic Feel: Although it uses a full scale, the melody feels very "open" and harmonious, typical of traditional Asian music.
  • Slow Tempo: The slow speed (80 BPM) gives you plenty of time to find the notes and focus on expression.
