Introducing the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box tenor alto chromatic half xylophone
Manufactured by Percussion Plus, this strong and incredibly sturdy tenor alto xylophone gives a superb, consistent and resonant sound. Their excellent tuning, stability and robustness makes them ideal for classroom environments, such as school ensembles, music lessons or band clubs.
The note bars are mounted to a highly durable and vibrantly coloured frame, which is designed to allow the sound to carry exceptionally well. Like all the other models in the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box line-up, the tenor alto xylophone has precision cut tone bars for exceptionally accurate tuning.
It’s built as an expansion of the diatonic instrument to fill in the accidentals in the scale. Its frame is slightly taller than the PP088, allowing the ‘black notes’ to sit above and overhang the ‘white notes’, just like a piano keyboard.
Create a fully chromatic instrument
Pair the PP089 with the PP088 diatonic tenor alto xylophone to make a fully chromatic xylophone.
Please note: the PP088 is sold separately
Built with quality materials
This versatile, well-designed instrument is made with the highest quality materials, so that it can handle being in a school environment. It’s made from solid Poplar wood, which will last for many years.
