All About the Bass (Bars)

Help me give my students a fuller ensemble sound with a bass bar!

My Project

I feel fortunate to have taken three Orff-Schulwerk level courses and for my classroom to have many barred instruments that facilitate learning musical concepts. I am requesting assistance in acquiring a bass bar for my classroom, which will give our songs and arrangements more depth. I am also requesting boomwhacker "octavator" caps to give students more sound options when using these instruments.

Teaching in a military community means some students are transient, moving from place to place quickly.

I want to give students the most enriching music experience possible while they are here, hopefully carrying some of their knowledge to wherever they go.
