Smallsize Agogô by Gope!
Finally a smaller sized agogô for people with smaller hands!
Even kids won´t have problems holding the agogô and playing muffled sounds
You can easily produce the typical click-sound by pressing both bells against eachother
A well-sounding agogô with a pretty interval!
Comes with a stick!
Good to know:
In Brazil it is not common to tune agogos to certain tones or even to matching intervals, dissonance and individuality are therefore part of this instrument. This allows each agogo to sound slightly different, even if the model is the same.
"Gope"
GOPE is a family-run business from the area around São Paulo. Today the company is being run in its third generation by the grand daughter of the firm´s founder.
The brand GOPE has been producing drums and smallpercussion instruments for over 50 years now. When the company was founded, there was already a small workshop in which drumsets were manufactured.
In 1962, the production of the typical Samba instruments began, iniciated by Humberto Rodella, the son of the founder. The company kept growing and after several relocations in São Paulo, GOPE finally found the right place for building a large production hall in Embu Guaçu, a suburb of São Paulo.
Since then GOPE produces in Embu Guaçu everything from the Agogô to the Zabumba, a wide range of percussion instruments, and only recently also various wind instruments.
GOPE has always kept in close touch with the musicians. The ideas and proposals for modifications that they received from many of those contacts, have always had much influence in the development of new instruments and improvement of production.
This is a lightweight small Agogo, I have small hands and this should be perfect.
