Here in Hafralækjarskóli we are continuing the great job of Robert Faulkner, who introduced the spirit of the marimbas in the school. Working with this kind of instruments is very satisfactory and stimulating because the students have to work together to make music. It means paying more atention to what each other is playing. Improve, to ge into the rhythm. The marimba's groups work very fine.! Today, we have 4 marimba's groups: Enrice, the blowing instrument teacher works with the youngest group (6 -7 years) or Yngsta Stig in icelandic. Maurício and Kelly have 3 marimba's groups, the Yngsta stig (9 years), the Miðstig Marimba and the Unglingastig Marimba. Now, they are learning and improving some african songs and some Maurício's compositions. We will add some recordings here, very soon!
