Percussion Workshop produces high-quality handmade percussion instruments for use in education or at home. Their instruments represent excellent value for money and are suitable for players of all ages and standards. The KB10 is made to Percussion Workshop's high standard and is built to withstand the rigorous testing any primary class can put it through!
This colourful KB10 chime bar set from Percussion Workshop offers a fun and easy way for children to begin learning music. The set includes 8 diatonic (C64-C76) steel chimes painted in eye catching colours set upon tough plastic resonators. Note names are etched onto the metal bars - perfect for teaching young children the basics of pitch.
Teaching music to young groups requires plenty of coordination, technique and concentration, and sometimes it can be difficult to get cohesive tunes out of your whole class ensemble.
Relating specific colours to specific notes can be engaging and helpful for young students learning the basics of music notation, enhancing their development from the early stages. Drawing on this concept, Percussion Plus make a range of brightly coloured, accessible instruments which are great for teaching young students basic musicianship without needing to worry much about technique - the Colour & Play series.
All the instruments in this series are coloured according to Percussion Plus' Colour Matching Note System, so anyone can enjoy playing without prior knowledge of musical notation. Check out the whole Colour & Play range here!
For example, the KB-10 is colour-coded to match the following products:
