Korogi’s Desktop Xylophones are the ideal instrument for the beginning percussion student as a longer-lasting, more pleasant-sounding alternative to a beginning bell kit. These instruments can be used all through school as a professional instrument. Desktop keyboards are often found in orchestra pits as a smaller, more portable and convenient substitute for a full-sized instrument. Carrying bags and custom school packages are available upon request.
Great for Beginners or Professionals
Band directors are now using these instruments with their beginning percussionists as they offer a much better playing experience than the inexpensive bell kits. The warmth and colour these keyboards produce resembles more of professional instruments and is makes playing and practicing more enjoyable. Their quality also makes them a great option as practice instruments for professionals or in pit orchestras and traveling ensembles.

These high-quality instruments feature the same stringent grading and selection methods that Korogi uses for selecting bars as with the finest marimbas. Bars are matched not only for quality of wood colour, grain and density, but also tone quality, sustain, and projection across the entire range of the keyboard.
