Xylophone Construction Journey
-- May 27, 2011
My wife thinks I'm nuts. And she's right. But that has nothing to do with this week's project: building xylophones that can be played by students in next week's Chameleon Arts Ensemble's residency in Boston. Last year, my teaching mentor Wendy Silverberg lent me a whole set of xylos, but this year I've decided to make my own (so I can keep them and my kids can use 'em!!!) The web-site where I got the plans says that one can build them in an afternoon. Well that's good, because that's about all I have. More soon… very soon.
Oh Hans, good luck, may the blade be with you as you saw and saw and saw and then saw again to make it right.
