This bass xylophone will help students in the classroom where they are taught various styles of music through the Orff Schuwerk Approach for music education. This instrument will allow the student to learn how to independently play an instrument in compositions as well as create their own compositions. The instrument will also be used during performances throughout the years. The bass xylophone is typically used to play the bordun or the baseline of most Orff-influenced orchestrations to accompany any song. I'm sure my students current and in the future will benefit from this instrument greatly.
