This set of 8 chime bars from Percussion Plus is a great resource for the classroom. The 8 diatonic (C64-C76) painted steel chimes are mounted on durable plastic resonators.
These chime bars offer accurate tuning and a crisp, clear tone. The set includes 2 plastic beaters and is supplied in a strong, transparent carry case with handle, making it easy to store and transport between lessons.
Designed with education in mind, each bar is made from sturdy metal construction to withstand regular classroom use. The durable design ensures consistent performance while remaining practical for busy teaching environments.
The chime bars are colour-coded using Percussion Plus’ Colour Matching Note System, allowing students to play confidently without needing to read traditional notation. They are also tuned to match other instruments in the range, making them suitable for ensemble work in the classroom.
The Colour & Play series is designed to support music education in group settings, helping students engage with rhythm, pitch and melody through colour association.
Each instrument in the range uses a consistent colour system linked to specific notes, making it easier for beginners to take part in group performance and develop basic musical understanding.
