X - Xylophone

The Xylophone is a wood instrument in the Percussion family that is believed to have originated in Africa.  It consists of different lengths of wood bars and is played by using something that looks like a rubber mallet.  Each bar is set to a specific pitch. 

You can make a xylophone out of many different types of material.  They don't necessarily have to be wooden.  A child's xylophone is often made out of metal.  Anyone of any age can play the xylophone.  You do not have to take lessons or have a special talent.  Just enjoy and have fun with it.
