Newkulele Festival 2026 Workshop: Festival Marimbas
About
Festival Marimbas with Heather McLaughlin.Marimbas are very big xylophones which can be played by three people standing up. They are good for almost instant group music making, and for all ages - no experience necessary! Many schools have found them a great basis for or addition to the music programme, but they are also ideal for adults and community music activity.
Heather McLaughlin has enjoyed getting people of all ages playing marimbas and other percussion instruments for over 30 years. In this workshop she will lead you through a few songs; such as Jon Madin’s "Boris the Bassman”, a well-known tune “Heart and Soul”, and even the William Tell theme. This will be a really fun and vibrant workshop open to all players, young and old, and will definitely book out (limit of 30 people each day) so get your ticket now. In particular, families are welcome to come along and play music together.
