Imagine that amazing moment, when a child who has never played an instrument before steps up to this one of a kind instrument, then in moments, the child is able to play their favorite nursery rhyme - with no adult intervention. What would it be like for the parent who drops their child off in the morning, then returns to hear their child prodigy playing to their hearts content later that same day? What other nearby program offers this kind of education?
Does this scenario sound incredible? Yes, it's incredible, but you can provide the means to make this happen with your students, by providing this beautiful outdoor musical instrument and music book for the children to quickly master. How does this work?
Our Capella Diatonic Outdoor Xylophone has 15 Rainbow Colored Notes and is tuned to G Major G3-G5.
Because of its diatonic arrangement, players are able to play lots of familiar or favorite tunes as well as improvising or composing their own - making it equally fun for beginners or experienced musicians. This versatile outdoor musical instrument is appropriate for child care programs, schools and nurseries as well as elderly care homes and senior centers.
The vibrantly colored anodized notes are set to our rainbow scale and can be combined with one of our Music Books where the notes on the instruments correspond with the colored notes on the music sheets. Players then simply follow the colors, while striking the same color notes on the Capella as shown in the music book, to play a well-known song. Presto...you've just helped shape a junior musician!
Too young to learn to play traditional music? Children under four years can still benefit from this wonderful instrument, even if they're not quite ready to follow the colors in the Music Book yet. With this outdoor musical instrument, there are no wrong notes. Every note struck, from the first note on, will produce a beautiful, crisp tone, pleasing the young musician and everyone else within hearing distance. This success will inspire all children who play the Capella, helping to create a natural desire to play and learn more. This early success may lead to a lifetime of learning to play and perform as the child develops into a young maestro.
Ideal for improving hand to eye coordination, rhythm, and fine motor skills, this small and compact instrument will give children an opportunity to improvise and compose their own melodies while exploring and experimenting with sounds and pitch (high vs. low sounds, loud vs. soft, fast vs. slow) and other musical contrasts.
Set on an HDPE mounting, the stainless steel resonators will deliver a bright rounded sound. Add this exciting instrument to your musical garden, music park, or any commercial playground environment today!
