Recently, I completed Certification Level I in Orff-Schulwerk - A music pedagogy based on the premise that music is learned through play. It is a beautiful method which engages children in expressive music making using instruments created by Carl Orff, "father" of the pedagogy, in Salzburg, Austria, in the 1930s. My school has some xylophones, but we are missing a key instrument in an Orff "Instrumentarium", a bass metallophone (a xylophone but with bars made of metal instead of wood). Xylophones and metallophones fill the children with excitement, as they lead in their own learning, creating lovely melodies. With this bass metallophone, the children would add the needed low tones to the base of their compositions, accompaniments, improvisations, and expressive movement. This is why I am requesting, on behalf of the children at my school, a Studio 49 bass xylophone, to fill out their Instrumentarium.
