Overview

Under the guidance of Tom, a boy who loves drums, beginners get to know and play mallet instruments such as the glockenspiel, xylophone and marimba. In volume 1, technique, rhythm, but also general musical knowledge such as reading notes are developed together in the practice pieces. Many pieces, well-known songs and duets consolidate the whole thing and awaken the joy of playing.

In the second volume, the special unit “Hear, See & Play” promotes musical imagination and creativity. With the tracks on the accompanying CD, playing will almost take care of itself!
