Ysgol
Gymraeg, Cas Newydd, Newport recently worked with Robert to create
two outdoor
musical instruments. |
|
|
| |
| |
| |
Year
4 children created designs incorporating chimes, wooden xylophones
and a wide range of other things that make sounds. |
| |
All
these designs were then looked at and discussed (rigorously considering
the merits and drawbacks of each design) by the school childrens'
council and Eco council. Ideas were finalised and Robert went
back to the studio to realise the instruments. |
|
Aspects
of the design were influenced by the size of the tuned elements,
this was done by Welsh Instrument maker John Tose from www.pibydd.fsnet.co.uk |
|
The
frames were made from locally sourced Oak and installed in the
Sensory Garden
courtyard of the School. |
