CHILDREN’S INSTRUMENTS (Book)

In 2009, with a lot of help from several experts in the field, I produced the book Making Musical Instruments With Kids. It’s devoted to kid-buildable musical instruments of all sorts, written for adults who work with children. Coming up with a large number of instruments that actually sound good and play well, yet are simple enough for children to make, and which also meet a bunch of other good-parenting requirements … is quite a challenge! The book, published by See Sharp Press, included an audio CD containing sounds of the instruments described in the book. A sampling of those sounds can be heard in the audio clip here.
