Xylophones

The ‘echo piano’ is a xylophone belonging to the sub-category of struck idiophones. It consists of properly tuned metal bars placed in one row. You do not need any special skills to play the xylophone, so it might be a good idea to begin your musical adventure with a free bar instrument. Its simplicity encourages children to try out musical experiments and develop their creativity.

Only one person at a time can play the ‘echo piano’ xylophone. Its sound fits perfectly well with the sound of the marimba ‘stream’ or handpan ‘duet’. Resonators have been added to the instrument to strengthen and extend the sound.

The instrument can be fixed to the ground with two anchoring systems:

Concrete anchor – ensures a professional and stable installation of the instruments on soft surfaces (e.g. lawn, sand).

Flat anchor – the best solution to install instruments on hard surfaces (e.g. concrete).
