Tubular Bells

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Strike the tubes one by one with a mallet. Each tube produces a different sound. Explore how the sound changes depending on where you strike the tube (near the top end or in the middle). Play with the sounds and create your own original symphony, or try playing your favorite melody.

Did you know that tubular bells were developed at the turn of the 20th century as an alternative to church bells?

HOW DOES IT SUPPORT CHILD DEVELOPMENT?

Our melodic tubular bells are perfect for individual or group music-making, for example during outdoor music lessons or educational activities. The instrument stimulates children’s creativity, encourages the development of musical interests, and effectively engages all the senses, supporting sensory integration.

EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

► Game for two players: One person turns their back to the instrument while the other strikes different tubes. The participant must guess which tube produced the sound.

► Tubular bells are also an excellent instrument for rhythm exercises that combine playing, dancing, and singing.
