Seit gut 30 Jahren sind wir der Welt der afrikanischen und brasilianischen Perkussion verfallen. Auf unzähligen Reisen haben uns Ästhetik, Schönheit und Vielfalt der typischen Trommeln, Glocken und Rasseln in ihren Bann gezogen. 2002 haben wir aus unserer Leidenschaft für die traditionelle und innovative Musikkultur Brasiliens den Versandhandel für brasilianische Perkussion KALANGO gegründet.
This baqueta is just terrible. It is super stiff and noisy . It sadly remains unused.
And so the search for a decent baqueta continues.
Why is it so difficult to get a decent one?
Dear customer, thank you for your comment on this article. The stiff handle of the CONTROL baqueta is its main feature! It encourages to learn a good playing technique for people who are new on the tamborim and is our preferred model for beginners, recommended and developed by reknown tamborim players in Rio. If you prefer a more flexible beater, please have a look at our FLEXI line and the Japa or Jorginho beaters where you will find that the handle as well as the rods are a lot softer than the Control beater. Happy to help if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us.
