Found in most music classrooms and music therapy programs around the world, these affordable, colour-coded, tuned percussion tubes provide an opportunity for any age and ability to experience success making music.
Boomwhackers are strong, lightweight, portable tuned percussion tubes, played by beating against each other, on legs, arms or hands for a warm mellow tone or indeed, against harder surfaces for a hard edged attack.
With no limit to the creative learning process, students can feel the joy of learning and experiencing rhythm, pitch and movement while having fun!
