Primary Sonor Global Beat Alto Metallophone Standard

The Global Beat Alto Metallophone from Sonor Orff provides an accessible musical experience for beginners and professionals alike. With 16 aluminum alloy bars tuned to the A440 standard, including F# and Bb bars, this metallophone delivers a balanced, resonant tone that fills any space. Each bar is clearly labeled with its note name and octave, allowing players to easily identify pitches and place bars back in the correct position after playing.

Aluminum Alloy Bars Offer Outstanding Tone

The Global Beat Alto Metallophone features precision-tuned aluminum alloy bars selected for their ability to produce a clear, ringing tone with impressive sustain. Beginners will appreciate the ease of producing a musical sound, while more advanced players will relish the instrument's dynamic range and responsiveness. With a range of C1 to A2, this metallophone can handle simple children's songs as well as complex classical pieces.

Birch Resonator Box Enhances Projection

Nestled within a sturdy birch wood resonator box, the metal bars of the Global Beat Alto Metallophone gain added resonance and projection. The box helps the instrument achieve an open, ringing quality even at low dynamic levels, allowing the bars' tones to carry in small rooms as well as larger performance spaces. Rubber pins hold each bar in place within the resonator box but also allow for easy removal and replacement, perfect for transporting the instrument or rearranging bars to suit different musical needs.

Complete with Essential Accessories

Sonor Orff includes a pair of wood mallets and a carrying case for the F# and Bb bars to ensure you have everything needed to start playing right away. The mallets produce a full, rounded tone from the metal bars that complements the instrument's musical character. Meanwhile, the bar carrying case provides safe storage for the "accidental" bars when they are not placed within the resonator box, keeping all parts of the metallophone protected and together.
