Orff Keyboard stands are designed to lift the keyboards to the correct playing height. Those with wheels allow the instruments to be moved
around the classroom and into position for ensemble playing. However we do not recommend that these stands are used to transport
instruments across a school - the wheels are only small and the frames are not designed to cope with uneven / rough terrain.

Lesson Idea -
Rhythm and Hand Percussion Action Chant
by Sue Lane, Manager, Professional
Lesson Idea Development, Musica Viva In Schools
The following rhyme is a simple but effective warm up, great for getting the
blood flowing and focusing students in their listening.
To teach the chant:

Echo each phrase with actions, gradually building on each phrase until students are confident with the sequence
Perform together
Perform actions without words (words in your head) to encourage inner hearing and to reinforce the sequence.
Performing as a round:
Divide the student group in half to perform the chant as a round, with the second group entering after the first phrase.
Divide the students into three or four groups to perform the round in more parts.
Other ideas to explore:

Perform the chant together, clapping every syllable, creating the rhythm of the chant
Transfer this rhythm onto drumsticks or chopsticks or other available non-melodic percussion instruments
Ask students what they notice about the rhythm of the four phrases. Are they the same? Is there one phrase that has a different rhythm?
Play the rhythm of the different phrases as they are discussed
Notate the rhythm of the various phrases.
Include phrases, or parts of phrases as ostinato patterns (repeating patterns)
e.g. stamp your feet (rest), stamp your feet (rest)
jiggle jiggle jiggle jiggle, jiggle jiggle jiggle jiggle
click (rest) (rest)(rest), click (rest) (rest)(rest)
Allocate parts with ostinato patterns and non-melodic instruments. Layer in the different patterns to accompany the chant or the rhythm
of the chant played on drumsticks or chopsticks.
Compose new lyrics for the chant, including other actions. New compositions could be composed in groups or as a class. This is a great
opportunity to work with rhyming and encouraging students to think of fundamental movement skills to include
e.g. Jump up high and then crouch down
Skip on the spot and touch the ground.
Revisit some of the previous activities from the teaching sequence. The rhythm may vary from the original so there will be new
possibilities to explore.
Combine ideas into a structure for performance, with the chant and accompaniment possibilities, new verses and actions.

Some Opti-Note teaching ideas by Carolyn Watson

The following lesson idea is designed to teach pulse and introduce rests in a simple class group reading activity. Hand out
enough Boomwhackers, Boomwhacker Coloured Chime Bars, Hand or Desk Bells or Tone Chimes so that each student
has a colour coded instrument. Group students together in 8 colour/note groups. This lesson can also be taught using non-
coloured tuned instruments by following the note names. Arrange the Opti-Notes on the white board as seen in Ex 1
Ex 1 To teach the exercise:

At first, rehearse each bar of the exercise
separately so that each group can hold the pulse
of four notes accurately and follow a count in.
Perform the exercise in sequence pointing to each
disc in time with the pulse.
Ask for volunteers to be the conductor.
Ex 2
Introducing rests:
Remove the last disc in each bar and perform the
exercise again with the silence pulse being
included in the conducting. See Ex 2.
Ex 3 Ask for volunteers to be the conductor.
Divide the students into smaller groups to perform
the exercise.
Change the position of the rest in each bar.
See Ex 3.
Extension idea - Harmony:

The following chord progression is a simple and effective way to introduce Other ideas to explore:

a terrific sound and the drums can be used for

Music For Children Vol 1, 2, 3
Hermann Regner
The three volumes of the American Edition contain a wide range of both traditional and new material (speech exercises,
games, dances, texts, songs with instrumental pieces, information on how to use the material). Orff-Schulwerk is not a
method that should be followed page by page; it is a collection of material that invites original arrangements or variations
and the composition of complementary and contrasting material. This edition follows the tradition of Schulwerk editions from
other countries and contains some vocal and instrumental material from the original Schulwerk. However, most of the
material has been contributed by leading educators that reflects the vast panorama of the cultural heritage of the United
States. In all volumes there are several articles, each dealing with a specific topic within the field of Music and Dance
Education. These unique volumes provide a rich and varied source of material which will stimulate the imagination of Orff-
Schulwerk teachers everywhere.

Art and Music
Listen and Look
Can you Hear It ?
William Lach
In this book, young readers are introduced to great music through great works of art. From The Flight of the
Bumblee to The Four Seasons to Night on Bald Mountain, beloved music is illustrated by great works of art,
and the text and accompanying CD urge young readers to listen for certain instruments. Can you hear the car
horns honking, played by clarinets? Can you hear the horses hooves, played by castanets? When each CD track
is played, young readers will stop, look, and listen as never before. Classical music is filled with unforgettable
images. In this book, great examples of pictorial music are matched to masterpieces from The Metropolitan
Museum of Art, for an introduction to both music and art appreciation for young listeners.
Included is a CD featuring 12 short works and an introduction to the orchestra and the instruments.

Marimbas* * Call for subsidised freight on all items on this page
About Honduras Rosewood

According to one of the worlds leading manufacturers of Marimbas, Ron Samuels from Marimba One
rosewoods from Africa, Asia, Central America, and South America are under threat and the kind specifically
used for concert-level marimbas which is called Honduras Rosewood (Dalbergia Stevensonii) is grown only
in Guatemala, Belize and Southern Mexico. This Honduras Rosewood is highly in demand by concert
percussion manufacturers and the exporting and logging is strictly regulated as the supply becomes more
limited and expensive.
In light of this pressure on Honduras Rosewood selecting a marimba that is suitable for your school or for
personal use is an important decision. These instruments need to offer excellence in sound and functionality
as well as good long term service. Please call 02 9744 1829 to discuss your needs.
Bar Tuning
All marimbas and xylophones need tuning occasionally. Wood is a natural product and will be affected by
weather conditions and playing. If your school has a marimba (or xylophone) that needs tuning please call
us and we will help you get it playing in top condition. Spare parts also available for all brands.

Adams Alpha Series Keyboards*
The Adams Alpha Series keyboards feature tuning advancements that
further enhance the sound of the instruments, notably making the
upper registers sound more open and resonant. Using a proprietary
computer assisted method, Adams is the only company producing bars
meticulously precision tuned though an incredible sixth overtone in the lower register. This
exclusive tuning process gives Adams keyboards the most stable pitch and evenness of sound
available, and allows Adams complete control over all aspects of the marimba's sound. Alpha
features a dramatic addition to Adams frame design. Adams collaborated with Kessels Granger
Design Works to create the newly contoured rails, end pieces, and resonators, all available in
many colour and stain combinations. Call to custom design your dream instrument.

Timpani
Timpani* Optimum Percussion are the Timpani Experts
Timpani are a long term investment and can make a huge difference to the sound of your ensembles. If well maintained, they
can last for many decades.
Call us for expert advice in purchasing the right model for your needs and budget. We know all the sounds, the frames,
dimensions and weights, pedal actions, bowl types and shapes. We know which ones are height adjustable, which ones have
fine tuners, which ones fit in to small store rooms and which ones wheel the best.
Servicing: Timpani do require adjustment occasionally to keep them in their correct range and to keep the pedals working
smoothly. Slipping pedals, missing gauge indices and dodgy wheels can cause major headaches. We know all the brands very
well and can provide you with the right heads, correct spare parts and advice to keep your drums working. If needed, we can
organise a service person to come to your school or even organise to have the drums shipped to us for servicing. We service
every timpani we sell prior to delivery to ensure they arrive to you perfectly adjusted with the pedals balanced, heads
clear in pitch and gauges set ready to play. New high quality Pedal Timpani start from less than $3000 per drum.
