Percussion

rhythmic instruments like claves or rattles, jew harps and other rare instruments

Percussion

Percussion is used to describe various rhythm instruments, especially rattles with many different sounds, but also tonewoods, small drums, or jew's harps

What is music without the diverse sounds of percussion.
Percussion instruments are often very simple instruments, ultimately just everyday objects that are used to beat the rhythm. As simple as these instruments are, there are many variations, especially when it comes to the materials, which then repeatedly create new sound images.

Then there are simple rhythm instruments like claves.
Rattles can be made from many objects. Rattles are often used for rites and have a protective character. Ultimately also in toddler hands in the cradle.
But more elaborate instruments such as the kalimba or thetambourine also belong to the rhythm instruments.
Some instruments imitate animal voices like the sound frog or the owl.
And last but not least, the folk instrument the jew's harp should be mentioned here.
We have also sorted the curiosity of the nose flute or the shrutibox here with the percussions.

Persusion instruments are often very old, come from different cultures and still accompany modern music today.

Gaita Gallega

The gaita are bagpipes which are traditionally played in spain. They are mostly made with one Bordun, sometimes with two. The pipes give a loud, relatively warm, pleasing sound.
The instruments we offer have one Bordun, a pipe in Do (C) and a 'goretex' bag covered in velvet in traditional Basque colours. The pipe is played using a wooden reed, and is very easy to master, making these bagpipes ideal for beginners.
We also offer the gaita with two borduns. They are made from strong wood. In case of interest please contact us. fingering chart
Also we are offering only the chanter of the Gaita called punteira. It is to play like a shalmei.

Ode

This chime with many sticks creates a delicate, bright sound. Between 9 silver, hollow tubes there are 4 small black solid bars which underline the sound with bright tones. An enchanting, mystical sound.
