Orchestra of Giants

The communicative musical playground with oversized instruments


Musical instruments which offer a basic insight into the physics of sound. This is where you can fi nd out how length, tension and material can change tone variations and sound.

The huge sound sculptures demand cooperation from the participants, as sounds can only be produced when several players work together. Appropriate Instruments for the relevant activity and exhibition will be supplied according to the type of event required and budget available.

A melody can be composed by walking along on
a long, thick string.

applying varying pressure.



 

Pump Organ:
