About this Artist

Khoirul Anam was born in Java August 5, 1969. He tells his story.

"I learned to make musical instruments by myself, under the guidance of no one. At first I learned to place goat hide on some kinds of instruments, and then I learned to do the finishing process. Ever since then, music has been part of my life. In 2001, I was finally able to establish my own workshop.

"Recently, music was introduced to the modern world as an alternative way to heal people from illness, which is known as music therapy. Listening to certain music can also help ease stress. I thrive on the challenge of creating various kinds of musical instruments.

"High thanks to what Novica is doing in promoting artists art works. Hopefully, people in the whole world will accept my works."

I just received my Kendang (double chalice with ball) and I have to say, the piece is beautiful. It has a nice sound to it and the craftsmanship is exquisite. Thank you.

Khoirul's Xylophones have the most exquisite tonality. Beautifully made, they are not only musical instruments but works of art!

I was amazed at both the quickness of delivery and quality of packaging. For such a beautiful and delicate musical instrument, traveling such a long distance.....there was no possible way for damage to occur. The Kalimba itself, is a tremendous tribute to the artist and was superior in design and tonality than anything I had shopped for on traditional musical instrument sites. Thank you Khoirul Anam....may the vibrations of your craftsmanship be reverberated back to a more peaceful world as my young musician plays it. PEACE

I just received my Blue Turtle coconut shell Kalimba. It arrived in beautiful giftwrap featuring an intricate paper figurine. The kalimba itself is magnificent. It has such a simple form and yet there is a sense of real depth. The sound is haunting and ethereal, a message from another world. Please tell Khoirul Anam that his instrument has made someone literally on the other side of the world very happy.

I ordered Khoirul Anam's "Black Flower" drum for my husband. It's so striking, we keep it in the living room so it will be seen--which is great because it gets played often also. The sound is so soothing and playing it is also. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Kristi C

I purchased the Mahogany jambe drum, 'Bhoma, Lord of the Forest' for my boyfriend who is a drummer. He had recently broken the head on an African hand drum he owned and I looked forward to surprising him for his birthday with a replacement. Aside from the absolute beauty of the instrument, the tone is incredible! We are both thrilled with the quality of Mr, Anam's work and look forward to seeing and potentially purchadsing other pieces from this talented artist.

I purchased the "Great Dragon" drum several months ago. The craftmanship is incredible on this piece. I enjoy playing it and get many compliments.

Tina

Sevierville, TN. USA

We received our drum a couple of days ago. I should say, my daughter received her drum a couple of days ago. She is 16 months old and the drum is her Christmas present from my wife and I. We wanted to buy her an instrument with heart and heritage that she could carry with her for the rest of her life. She recognized the drum's form before we could unwrap it and was beating the head as the paper was removed. We are a household of musicians and the drum has already lured the hands of everyone who has seen it. We are more than pleased with the beauty both of the sound and the woodwork. We are also happy to be directly supporting artists like Khoirul Anam. Thank you for making this transworld connection possible.
