Product Description

Traditional Orff-Schulwerk style individual bar; this bar sounds two octaves below "middle" B (the octave below a traditional Orff bass xylophone). Care for this instrument as you would for fine furniture - protect from heat and temperature changes, and clean the bar two to three times per year with a high-quality furniture polish (preferably with a lemon oil base). Mallet not included.
