Marimbas

These substantial outdoor Marimbas are extremely popular and perfect as; school playground equipment, for use during music therapy sessions and creative playgrounds. Our outdoor Marimbas allow musicians and non-musicians alike to perform creative music in interesting outdoor settings.

Currently Marimba bars are typically made of either wood or a synthetic material. Percussion Play have Marimbas with both hardwood notes and glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) that will stand up to the rigors of being outdoors 24/7. Like the xylophone, the orchestral marimba is a set of wooden bars, often made of rosewood, mounted on a stand, with each bar having its own resonator. The upper limits of bar percussion are already well explored by the xylophone and glockenspiel and the Marimba is distinguished by its resonant, mellow tone, contrasting with the xylophone’s sharp, short sound.
