Town Green Rentable space
Come and create your own beautiful music in the park! The music plaza includes six specially made, weather resistant instruments that create great music and never have to be tuned.
Music plaza instruments
African drums: Molded plastic tuned drums that provide bass and beat.
Contrabass chimes: Seven chime towers that range in height from 7 to 9 feet. They are pitched an octave below middle C and resonate with a sensation of surround sound.
Glass imbarimba: A combined marimba and kalimba that provides two-handed access to upper and lower notes.
Pagoda bells: Vertically aligned bells with long resonating tones that serve as calming percussion.
Sunset yantzee: A foundational piece that looks like a xylophone and provides low resonance in support of melody.
The swirl: Sculptural chimes that emit a beautiful full range of soprano to alto sounds as elegant as a harp.
