BoomWhackers OC8G Cápsulas Octavator Tube (8 unidades)

General

The Boomwhacker Octavator Tube Caps are black caps that you can fit onto the end of a Boomwhacker tube to lower its pitch by a full octave. This makes the Boomwhackers even more useful than they already are, allowing you to use them as stamping tubes, for instance. If you carefully and quickly let the tube's end bounce onto a soft surface, picking it up right away, they can produce a remarkably djembe-like sound. These caps are fun and useful accessories for any set of Boomwhacker tubes.

Boomwhackers

Boomwhackers are tuned percussion tubes. These hollow, lightweight, brightly coloured plastic tubes vary in size and each has its own pitch, which is indicated on the tube itself. The high-octave tubes vary in length from 30 to 62 centimetres, while the bass tube is slightly over a metre long. They're very comfortable to hold, and produce a great sound when you strike them against your hand, a table or the floor, for instance. Boomwhackers are sold in a variety of sets and virtually anyone can pick them up and play them - you hardly need any knowledge of rhythms or music. In short, they're unique instruments that have taught hundreds of thousands of people the joy of making music. They're great for young and old, and they offer a fun way of introducing children to the concept of music and musical notes.
