Cleaning Basic Beat Instruments

Plastic and other wood-hard surface percussion instruments (i.e. rhythm sticks, resonator bells, woodblocks, etc.) may be cleaned with disinfecting wipes or sprays.

Building Your Classroom Curriculum

Your curriculum, along with your learning objectives and students’ abilities, will help you select the right balance of shakers, scrapers, metals, drums, and woods. Thirty cowbells playing the timeline for Ensemble I of the “World Music Drumming Curriculum” would be a bit much, but it would be perfect for a performance of “Click, Clack, Moo! Cows That Type!”

  • Stretch your budget by choosing instruments known for durability, quality, and sound
  • Do you need a tubano for every student? Maybe, but first make sure you have purchased a balanced variety of instruments and sounds.

Let your little one discover the magic of percussion with an 8-note Glockenspiel from Basic Beat. The colorful bars allow children to quickly and easily navigate between each note while playing a song. The bright colors also help younger children to associate that each colored bar creates its own unique sound. This glockenspiel is diatonic with eight notes that range from the C above middle C, up to the next C (c1-c2). The metal bars are securely fastened to a sturdy wooden base with rubber covered metal pins that cannot be removed. The included plastic mallets have soft rubber heads to allow the music of the Glockenspiel to fill the room.
