Sonor Palisono TAKX 100 Tenor-Alto Xylophone
Expert Perspective
This was the very first Orff instrument I purchased when starting out as an elementary music teacher for the same reasons you will today.
- With two octaves, it is possible to have two students play at one time
- The fiberglass bars weren’t affected by cold or heat so the instrument could sit in my car overnight without any worries
Description
Looking for a top of the line, premium Orff instrument? Look no further than Sonor's Palisono series. Palisono bars are made from high-quality fiberglass and overtone tuned for premium sound quality and intonation. The fiberglass material is resistant to humidity and will maintain intonation regardless of seasonal weather changes.
Sonor fiberglass tenor-alto xylophone; diatonic, C1 to C3, with F# and Bb (19 bars); solid wood resonator box. The fiberglass bars are overtone tuned to A=440, the industry standard. Palisono (fiberglass) xylophones have a similar resonance to rosewood xylophones. Their advantage is that Palisono is not hygroscopic (pitch is not affected by changes in temperature or humidity), so these bars are ideal for humid climates. Sonor tenor-alto xylophones are unique because they cover a range of two full octaves, giving you space for more children to play on the same instrument.
Includes 1 pair of Sonor SCH11 felt mallets
