It has a definite pitch, that is to say, when it is struck with sticks it produces sounds of the musical scale (specific notes). It is also a monophonic instrument, namely, which produces only one sound at a time. <\/span><\/p>\n It is a metal instrument, comprising of a set of tubes of different lengths from each other. Due to these changes in lengths it can produce lower or higher sounds.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n CELESTA<\/span><\/strong> by\u00a0 <\/span>Juan De Quintana Mach\u00edn \u2013 1\u00baB<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The celesta is a musical instrument similar to the upright piano. The difference is that a celesta has got metal bars in place of strings. For this reason, it is an idiophone instrument.<\/span><\/p>\n When hitting the metal bars, it creates a resonance on a wooden box,<\/span><\/p>\n making a “heavenly” sound, from which comes its name.<\/span><\/p>\n
