Lighter than the often quite hefty 60cm surdos, but with solid sound quality. For Samba de Enredo fans, a few hundred grams are often a huge improvement. 10cm less is barely noticeable in terms of sound, but the weight and more compact size pay off. By the time you have finished a 4-hour carnival parade, you can thank the Samba god that you now have a more compact surdo than your bandmate with the old 8kg steel sheet tub.
A solid surdo with a good quality rating, popular across all levels of Samba with an attractive value for money and also in high demand in school bands.
Customer reviews for "Surdo 18''x50cm"
"Izzo"
High-quality instruments for Rio Samba and Samba Reggae, which are especially popular and proven in schools! For quite some years now, instrument builder IZZO remains among the top brands of Brazilian Samba percussios. It has been a while that IZZO instruments from São Paulo were rather simple percussion instruments which were very popular in Brazil due to their good price range.
Then they began to constantly increase their standard of Samba instruments until they reached a top-class level. By now they have become a serious manufacturer with a wide range of very well manufactured instruments which are known throughout the international market.
IZZO achieved a special coup when in 2010 they lanced their top brand TIMBRA. TIMBRA instruments were developed in close cooperation with renowned percussionists. The objective was to create convincing series of instruments with great sound, optically outstanding and adecuate for stage gigs. Especially the timbals, made of either wood or aluminium, set new standards with their 16 tuning hooks, extraordinary design and spectacular sound.
Today IZZO is completely in the league of the old-established traditional brands of Samba instruments.
