Rattan caxixi, large
Belongs in every basic capoeirista equipment: a classical rattan caxixi. The bottom part is a carved and sanded gourd piece, plant seeds are used as filling. A pretty, authentic and well made instrument! Caxixis made of rattan have a pleasant and soft sound. This one has a really nice contrast between both sound qualities - the floor piece and the basketwork. It's also a handy size for rhythm training in groups, as an effect in your band or in the studio!
"Marcos China RIO"
Marcos, nicknamed 'China', lives in Rio. He is a capoeirista, musician and an instrument maker. Marcos used to live in France for many years and was very successful with his Band 'Tupi Nago'.
Back in Rio he started to make Caxixis because he wasn´t able to find any in the quality he wanted. Bit by bit he added other small percussion instruments to his range.
He makes small series of instruments with extraordinary artisanal skills and love to small details. MARCOS CHINA keeps on inventing funny little instruments like the caixa de mesa, the saculegé or a minishaker made of plastic parts of PET bottles.
MARCOS CHINA berimbaus are highly appreciated amongst capoeiristas as well as percussionists.
Je suis très déçue, les cachichis ne ressemblent en rien à ceux que j’ai commandé, ni par la forme, ni par la taille , ni par le poids. J’ai commandé 2 grands cachichis de 24 cm de 300g et je me retrouve avec des 20cm de 150g ???????
Merci de votre commentaires. La taille est clairement indiquée par 'environ' car il s'agit d'un instrument fait à la main et non d'un instrument industriel. En fonction du volume de remplissage, de l'épaisseur du rotin et de la grosseur de la base, les caractéristiques de ce type d'instrument varient naturellement. Pour des raisons logistiques, nous devons toutefois donner des dimensions et des poids approximatifs sur la base d'une valeur moyenne. Marcos China se spécialise dans l'obtention du meilleur son de ses instruments. Si vous n'aimez pas le son ou si vous n'êtes pas satisfait de l'instrument, veuillez nous contacter pour les détails de retour.
