We wish every visitor of our website a wonderful, SONORous and happy new year!

Hopefully we will meet many of you at workshops, conferences or even here at SONOR in Bad Berleburg, Germany! Just like always, in 2010 we will give our best to develop and build instruments that meet your high standards in order to support your work best possible and - most importantly – that give you music-making pleasure.

Plan ahead for your visit of the “SONOR Days”, which will take place at the SONOR factory on May 29th and 30th on the occasion of our anniversary year!

This is a great opportunity to take a close look at the manufacturing of Orff instruments and drum sets. There will also be many interesting and enjoyable events, such as band performances, various clinics (needless to say that there will be Orff workshops, too!) and shows with world-famous drummers, musical entertainment and games for kids, raffles and more.

Especially worth mentioning here on the SONOR Orff website is the performance of the Carl Orff Ensemble (www.carl-orff-ensemble.de) from Hannover, which is worth a trip for every music pedagogue!

Enjoy the audio example "Lady Madonna" of the Carl Orff Ensemble.

Until then all the best!

Yours,	and
Product Manager Orff	Music Pedagogue
