Bringing the Music Outdoors

This grant funds the purchase and installation of three extra-large, outdoor, weather safe musical instruments on the grounds of Chatsworth Elementary School: a full set of Vibra Chimes, a Vivo Metallophone and a set of Grandioso Chimes. These instruments will continue to inspire the love of music while making creation effortless and fun. In addition, they will reinforce elements of the music curriculum and provide opportunities for outdoor general music classes. Outdoor instruments will also provide opportunities for the Band curriculum by offering new percussion lessons and percussion ensemble performances on the playground. Most of all, the instruments will be available to all students as well as the greater community and public.
