Product Information
Description
Percussion Workshop 27 colour note chromatic Glockenspiel – perfect for children and classrooms
The Percussion Workshop 27 colour note chromatic Glockenspiel is a bright, engaging glockenspiel for children and whole-class teaching. Its colour-note layout gives a full two-octave range, with each metal bar colour coded and clearly engraved with the note name. This makes it a strong first classroom glockenspiel for reading notation, playing melodies and reinforcing pitch work in groups or 1:1 lessons.
Great value for money
The Percussion Workshop glockenspiel range is known for offering high-quality, affordable glockenspiels for schools. This model is robust enough for daily use in Early Years, Primary, Secondary, Adult and SEND music sessions, while still being light enough for pupils to handle with confidence. Accurate tuning and a clear, bell-like tone make it useful for everything from first songs to small-group ensemble work.
Percussion Workshop 27 colour note chromatic Glockenspiel – includes accessories
The Percussion Workshop 27 colour note chromatic Glockenspiel has folding legs underneath the case, lifting the instrument off the table for better resonance and projection. A pair of strong yellow beaters is included, so learners can start playing straight from the box. The tough blue case with carry handle makes this glockenspiel with case easy to move between classrooms, rehearsals and performances, and it also stacks neatly on shelves or trolleys for simple storage.
More from the glockenspiel range
If you need other options for your scheme of work, the Percussion Plus 17 note glockenspiel and the Percussion Plus 25 note chromatic junior glockenspiel are also available separately. This gives you a flexible family of school glockenspiel options to suit different ages, lesson needs and budgets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this glockenspiel come with a case?
Yes. The Percussion Workshop 27 colour note chromatic Glockenspiel comes with a tough blue carry case. That makes it easier to move, store and protect between lessons.
Who is this glockenspiel suitable for?
It is suitable for players from 3 years old upwards. It works well in Early Years, Primary, Secondary, SEND and mixed-ability music sessions.
Why are the colour-coded bars useful?
Colour-coded bars make note-finding easier and help beginners play with more confidence. They are especially helpful in whole-class teaching and for pupils who benefit from visual note cues.
What is the difference between a xylophone and a glockenspiel?
A glockenspiel has metal bars and a bright, bell-like tone. A xylophone has wooden bars and a warmer, shorter sound. In classrooms, glockenspiels often make melodies easier to hear.
