Introducing the Boomwhackers 6-Note Pentatonic Set

The Boomwhackers 6-Note Pentatonic Set offers a playful way to explore melodies built on the pentatonic scale. Favoured in classrooms, ensembles, and music therapy settings worldwide, this set helps learners connect sound, movement, and rhythm in an engaging, intuitive way.

Bright, colour-coded tubes make pitch recognition simple and approachable, so students of all ages and abilities can enjoy immediate musical success. No prior experience is required, Boomwhackers foster creativity, confidence, and joyful participation.

What’s in the pack?

This set includes six colour-coded Boomwhacker tubes tuned to the pentatonic notes C, D, E, G, A, and high C. Tube lengths range from 30cm to 61cm, producing clear, resonant tones when struck on hands, surfaces, or the body.

Meet the Boomwhackers

Boomwhackers are fun, colourful & lightweight tuned percussion tubes that produce clear, musical notes when struck. Each tube is color-coded based on pitch, making them a fun and easy tool to create music in the classroom. With a simple but effective design and a whole range of teaching materials they are perfect for schools, SEND, and group performances.

Built to play

Each Boomwhacker tube is crafted from durable, high-quality plastic designed to withstand repeated use. Precision tuning ensures accurate pitch, while the smooth, lightweight design makes them easy to handle for all ages. They are safe, resilient, and built to last in both classroom and performance settings.

Learn and have fun

Boomwhackers are an engaging way to teach rhythm, pitch recognition, and coordination. They encourage group collaboration and ensemble playing, making them ideal for classrooms, music workshops, or family activities. They also provide a fun, hands-on method for exploring melody, harmony, and musical patterns.

Make music

Playing Boomwhackers is simple and intuitive. Tubes can be struck with hands, mallets, or against surfaces to produce bright, resonant tones. Each tube delivers a distinct, consistent pitch, allowing players to perform melodies, chords, and rhythms individually or in groups.

Look after your tubes

Boomwhackers are built to last, but a little care helps them stay in tune and ready to play. Wipe the tubes with a damp cloth if they get dusty or sticky, and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a bag or holder keeps each tube organized and makes clean-up quick and easy, so your Boomwhackers are always ready for music time.

Expand your range

Boomwhackers sets can be easily expanded to unlock new notes, scales, and musical possibilities. Chromatic extension sets add sharps, flats, and extra pitches, making it possible to explore different keys, harmonies, and more advanced repertoire. Bass Boomwhackers extend the range downward, adding depth and impact for ensemble work, while octave caps offer a simple way to double pitches without adding more tubes. Together, these options allow players to build a flexible, scalable setup that grows from simple classroom activities into full ensemble performance.
