My Project
In our music room, we are nearly at a full Orff instrumentarium! With just a few more needs to complete the set, a soprano glockenspiel would move us another step closer to a balanced ensemble. Students love the sparkly sound of the glockenspiels, especially after we did an entire lesson about the small instrument! At this time, the music room only has 4 glockenspiels, and only two are sopranos.
With hopes to start an Orff Ensemble, a soprano glockenspiel will help balance our instrument numbers.
We will use this instrument to perform melodies, accompany songs, and even play games! Students of all ages, from kindergarten to 5th grade, use the Orff instruments. These instruments are also used in performances, including the upcoming Winter Program!
Glockenspiels add an instrument sound that is unique and interesting. Different instruments allow students to have more opportunities to play, and more importantly to play different types of repertoire. With enough glockenspiels, students will be able to play glockenspiel color parts, ostinati, counter-melodies, and accent parts! This soprano glockenspiel would help make this possible.
More than half of students from low‑income households
