Title A name given to the resource Two metallophones, c.1910 Description An account of the resource Percy Grainger visited the musical halls of London in the decade before World War I, experiencing for the first time the sounds of the mallet percussion instruments used in jazz. To enrich his knowledge of these instruments, Grainger developed an arrangement with the London-based instrument making company Hawkes & Son. He would borrow different instruments, including newly developed forms of metal glockenspiels (metallophones), taking them home to experiment with their sound and technical characteristics. Grainger’s first composition that featured tuned percussion, Molly on the Shore, 1911, utilised a Hawkes & Son resonaphone.
