The length of the tube determines the pitch (how high or low the note is), and by making a set and varying the length of the tubes, you’ve created an instrument with a musical scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ve ditched the bamboo and made the Tembos from stainless steel, which we tune to the C-major pentatonic scale. A stylish support structure holds the six stainless steel pipes in a vertical orientation, with the tallest standing over 3m in height, creating a truly visual and audibly stunning experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth intriguing and addictive, our interactive outdoor Tembos allow you to make surprisingly funky music simply by striking them with the firm EVA foam paddles provided. Alternatively, you could go traditional and use your flip-flops!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy Tembo? Well, the shape of the instruments reminded us of Elephant Trunks and thus became the inspiration for the name Tembo which means ‘elephant’ in Swahili.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for All Ages 4+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall and Striking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique Sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisabled access \/ ADA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInclusive Play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Polaris-Badge_2qgie\"\u003ePurchased Separately\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Polaris-Badge_2qgie\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(G) Ground \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Polaris-Badge_2qgie\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFix- $6,910\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Polaris-Badge_2qgie\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(S) Surface Fix- $7,325\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-sm-12 text-center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTestimonials\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tesxt-center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row display-flex\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 col-sm-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"testim-block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"testimonial-content\"\u003eChristy Schink - Associate Director of Youth and Outreach Services Librarian, Scenic Library Missouri\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"testimonial-content\"\u003eWe have Soprano Quartet instruments at 5 of our 9 library branches and are hoping to add them to all of our branches.
