Description

The Choroi Pentatonic Harp, also known as  “Kinderharp” or “Kinderlyre” in Waldorf schools, is tuned in the five-note pentatonic scale:  d’ e’ g’ a’ b’ d’ e’. The Choroi Kinderharp is considered one of the finest quality pentatonic lyres made, and is used in many Waldorf school classrooms throughout Europe and the U.S. Choroi instruments were created through a striving for a characteristic, radiant tone deriving its intensity from the properties of the wood used in their construction.  Its graceful, sculpted form and ethereal tone make the harp ideal for stimulating a young child’s ear and to stimulate free music making. The harp can be given to a child, at age five or six, as a first string instrument.
