This akadinda was made as an outdoor musical instrument for a school in Kent. The akadinda is a tradition xylophone from Uganda with 17 notes. The smaller amadinda has 12 notes, both instruments are also known as log xylophones and are traditionally played by hitting the ends of the bars with wooden sticks in an interlocking style of duplets (amadinda) or triplets(akadinda). The bars are made of pitch pine and the frame from a solid curved oak log. It is being played here by the maker, Jamie Linwood and Ben and Sam Greenway
