PaLISONO
The Palisono range comprises 65 xylophones and chime bars with
Palisono bars.
What is Palisono?
Palisono is a sound material which was developed by SONOR in
cooperation with engineering specialists. The sound characteristics
of Palisono are ideally suited for the manufacturing of xylophones.
Palisono is a special fiberglass with high density that is not hygroscopic, i. e. it is resistant to humidity. This ensures excellent sound
quality and a higher tuning stability of the instruments.
The same manufacturing standards apply for Palisono as for all
Meisterklasse instruments: Excellence in quality and craftsmanship.
Meisterklasse is SONOR‘s largest range of instruments within
the program for music education, therapy, leisure and family.
Meisterklasse presents the ultimate in sound quality and
craftsmanship.
Although modern technology is firmly integrated into the
manufacturing process the secret of the SONOR sound still
depends on the dedication to detail and the focus on
excellence in craftsmanship as established by SONOR‘s
founder.
The unique features of the Meisterklasse are:
p 6 octaves chromatic tonal range, C to c5
p Special alloy metal bars and select
rosewood bars
p Sound bars with overtone or fundamental
tuning
p Resonator boxes with special acoustic
chambers and brackets for carrying legs or
the BasisTrolley system
p Surface protection of all wood finishes
with “Proterra” (Euronorm EN 71-3)

forward. We are proud to offer you the Primary series with timber
from well managed forests! The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC™)
is committed to national and international economical efficient,
ecological and social effective management of the
world‘s forests. The preservation of the forests
and their function as wildlife habitat, biological
resource and global buffering system against
the aftermath of the climate change, by
promoting the consumption of FSC™ wood
and paper products is the goal of this non
profit organization.

PRIMaRY GLOCKENSPIELS
The Primary glockenspiels SGP and AGP support music reading.
The bars with the print of the note enable a visual connection
between the sheet music and the instrument. When improvising
with self-created melodies the children always have a visual
reference to the printed notation. From the other perspective
the players get a feeling of what a printed note sounds like.

Primary – The Future Sounds Green!
Primary xylophones support music reading. The bars with the print
of the note enable a visual connection between the sheet music
and the instrument. When improvising with self-created melodies
the children always have a visual reference to the printed notation. From the other perspective the players get a feeling of how
a printed note sounds like.
All Primary xylophones have 35 x 18 mm Pao Rosa sound bars with
overtone or fundamental tuning. The redesigned stepped resonator
boxes are made of solid birch plywood to prevent warping.
The sound bars and resonator boxes of SONOR
Primary xylophones are FSC™ certified, which
means that only timber from well managed
forests are being used. In addition an environmentally safe finish is used, based on shellac,
oil and carnauba wax.

Author‘s Note: Who Can Benefit From Playing Chime Bars?
Families
SONOR chime bars provide a great way for families to come together for a fun activity that involves everyone regardless of age or
skill. From singing and accompanying favorite tunes to creating
music and playing games, families have the opportunity to
interact in a whole new way.
Prominently displayed, the chime bars become a conversation
starter for visiting guests. The mellow timbre enhances the
peaceful ambience of any home.
Basic and Music Education
Teachers can use SONOR chime bars to motivate their students and
teach academic concepts from the curriculum. For instance, a first
grade teacher may ask a student to add 3 + 5 and give the answer
by striking the chime bar 8 times.
While studying sentences, the students could play the chime bar
where the appropriate punctuation (period or comma) should
occur while reading the sentence aloud. Chime bar activities can
also be used for transition times or as incentives for completing
other work. Music educators use the chime bars to teach the
concepts of rhythm, melody, form, timbre and texture with ease.
Community and Church Groups
SONOR chime bars are designed to be played in community
with others. Using them in this manner helps to develop social
sensibilities and emotional intelligence.
Their portability and timbre also adapt beautifully for use in
church hymns, processionals and liturgy. The techniques used in
playing the chime bars transfer to the bell choir.
Special Populations
SONOR chime bars are particularly suited for those who may
face special challenges. Their lightweight construction, soft
resonance and ease of use makes them perfect for adaptive
educational settings. Created with a multi-sensory approach to
learning in mind, the chime bars can provide aural, visual, tactile
and kinesthetic experiences.
Retirement Communities
Creative and challenging activities for older adults are becoming
more popular as modern medicine has extended the average life
span. Playing SONOR chime bars offers the perfect balance
between social-emotional stimulation and mental challenge while
emphasizing the joy of living and connection with others.
Everyone!
Who can benefit from playing SONOR chime bars?
The answer is ... Everyone!

Arrange Tones to Suit Your Preference!
SONOR chime bars offer almost unlimited flexibility. The sequence
can be arranged or grouped completely to individual requirements.
The instrument setup KS 40 L 15 illustrates this feature in detail.
Here are two examples of playing and arrangement ideas:
Example 1
p� 15 players get one chime bar each with one mallet.
p� The players assemble in 3 groups:
green, red,
blue.
p� Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are!
Up a- bove the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are!
p� A conductor (teacher) gives the cue.
Example 2
p� Only the red and green chime bars from the KS 40 L 15
set are needed.
p� 10 players each get one chime bar with a mallet.
p� The players assemble in 2 groups:
green, red.
p� London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down
London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady
p� A conductor gives the cue.

PRIMaRY CHIME baRS
Primary chime bars support music reading. The bars with the print
of the note enable a visual connection between the sheet music
and the instrument. When improvising with self-created melodies
the children always have a visual reference to the printed notation. From the other perspective the players get a feeling of how
a printed note sounds like.
All Primary chime bars with metal bars either have overtone or
fundamental tuning. The resonator boxes are made of shockresistant RESOPHEN or solid birch plywood.

TIMPaNI
Meisterklasse Rotary Timpani
The principle of the rotary kettledrum for orchestral use,
known since 1821, has been combined in the SONOR rotary
timpani with a tried-and-tested system of central tuning.
The technical advantage of the SONOR timpani lies in the
unimpeded transfer of vibration from the head to the shell.
The construction of the SONOR rotary timpani is based
on over 125 years‘ experience.
Suitable mallets are: SCH 6, SCH 7, SCH 8 or SCH 60

Primary Screw Adjustment Timpani
These timpani can be used as timbales or tom toms. The unique
shape of the tension hoops and the durable plastic heads allow
for dynamic playing. These heads are also used for drum sets.
Compared with natural heads a plastic head is resistant against
humidity thus ensuring perfect pitch. Whether dry or humid
weather – Primary timpani always offer excellent sound.
Suitable mallets are: SCH 6, SCH 7, SCH 8 or SCH 60
System of
central tuning
Meisterklasse Screw Adjustment Timpani
The easiest and most traditional type of timpani tuning mechanism
is the tension screw system. By turning 5 to 8 tension screws
(depending on the diameter of the timpani) to the right, the head
is tightened and the pitch increased. If the tension screws are

Cajones for children – 2 playing surfaces!
For children it is often not ears to play on a regular sized Cajon,
because they can‘t touch the floor with their feet. Therefore the
size of the SONOR Cajones Chico and Mediano for children were
developed in consideration of the European standard for furniture
and chairs in educational institutions (DIN EN 1729).
The smaller Chico is especially suitable for children in elementary
school age, while the Mediano Cajon can be used until the 5th or
6th grade.Because children at this age grow unequally fast we
don‘t want to define an age recommendation – the best thing is
you try it!
Both Cajones for children have 2 playing surfaces, one with the
typical snare sound. Therefore the sound hole in the shape of the
SONOR mallet logo is positioned on the side.

SONOR offers spare parts for all its instruments. More than
7.000 parts all together. Because of the exquisite quality, they
are needed rarely.
Most of the spare parts get ordered because of lost sound bars or
mounted off parts. In everyday life at schools and kindergartens
also sometimes hides get crushed or small parts ripped off.
More parts can be found in the SONOR price list. All parts listed
are sold as single pieces unless indicated differently.

TONaL RaNGES
In almost all music literature xylophones, metallophones and
glockenspiels are arranged with terms like “soprano”.
Unfortunately these terms do not give any indication of the
actual tonal range. Therefore SONOR specifies the exact range
of all instruments with detailed description of scale and number
of notes.
Example:
The soprano xylophone SKX 300 has a chromatic scale
from c2 to b-flat3 (23 notes).
The soprano glockenspiel NG 10 has a C-major scale
with f-sharp3 and b-flat3 from c3 to f4 (13 notes).
58
Although the term “soprano” is used, neither tonal range nor
scale are identical. SONOR is using these terms only because they
have become a standard in music literature worldwide.
The reference chart shows all terms used within the SONOR program
and the available tonal ranges. We want to stress that glockenspiels are transposing musical instruments. They sound one or two
octaves higher than transcribed in music literature. Instruments
in the bass range are sometimes notated with the bass clef (F clef)
and other times with the treble clefs (G clef). Depending on the
notation they are counted as transposing instruments with a lower
sound than indicated in literature (one octave or two octaves).
