    SHACKULACH

    The Shakuhachi is a traditional Japanese end-blown bamboo flute. The Shakuhachi's history is steeped
    in myth and lore of Samurai warriors turned Bhuddist monks. Its secrets were locked in traditional
    contemplative societies for centuries until the Emperor brought this unique flute instrument into his court,
    and eventually the general public, in the 19th century.

    MARIMBA / XYLOPHONE
    When you translate the word "Xylophone" from Greek to English it means "wooden (= xylon) sound". The
    native xylophone is one of the most ancient instruments in the world. The xylophone consists of tuned
    wooden bars supported in their nodal point of vibrations. This percussion instrument comes in different
    shapes and varies considerably in size.
