This 11-tube Chimalong comes with a songbook and integrated music stand that make it easy for anyone to play. Kids can play it standing up, like a professional musician! Covers 1.5 octaves. The Chimalong XR is unique among children's instruments in that it combines the purest musical sound with a creative system of musical instruction. The system of notation utilized in the songbook was developed so that it can be understood by a child of any age. The songs can be played in the early stages by simply matching colors. In the same manner, an older child can use the numerical system. Eventually, the traditional music notation can be integrated. Each tube of the instrument is electronically tuned to the highest standards and securely suspended in a safe foam holder, ensuring the soft, resonant sound of the instrument. The Chimalong XR helps your child develop in many important ways. It aids motor development and coordination through the kinetic process of striking the tubes. The accompanying color-coded songbook also helps with color recognition and introducts musical notation in a fun way. The tubes are tuned in a basic diatonic scale pattern, as in the familiar "so-la-ti-do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do." You will no doubt enjoy discovering the many melodies and songs that can be played on the Chimalong XR (in addition to the those in the songbook). The specific range and key of this instrument was chosen because it best fits the range of a child's voice. This encourages your child to sing along and instills a sense of tone and pitch relationships, making playing a lot more fun.
