Walking Xylophones Xylophones<br />

Want to play music in a circle or do you coach sitting would-be musicians?<br />
With the walking xylophone, you enjoy maximum flexibility. Attach it to one<br />
arm using the strap and play with your other hand—even while you walk<br />
around. This is the ideal solution for music education and music therapy.<br />
Xylophones have a warm, velvety sound. They are easy to play and look gorgeous.<br />
This probably explains why they are so popular among senior citizens. Their short<br />
note duration makes xylophones perfect for groups with multiple players. For<br />
beginning senior citizens, we recommend the alto xylophone with its medium<br />
range. Soprano and deep-bass xylophones can be added for accents and as an<br />
accompaniment.<br />
Xylophones made of Palisono have one decisive advantage over those made of<br />
wood: They are not hygroscopic. The tuning is resistant to temperature variations or<br />
changes in humidity. Cleaning the bars with disinfectant or dampish tissues as well<br />
as a temporary storage of the instruments in cool rooms is no problem at all.
