Bacurinha 8'' x 20 cm, aluminium - Samba Reggae style mini-repinique, #SelfieCherry
#Selfie - the new effect colours from Gope!
Spiffy high-gloss varnish to glam up your stage- and street gigs!
The bacurinha is a tiny repinique, which has become quite popular, especially in the famous bloco of Timbalada in Salvador. The are basically built the same way as standard-size repiniques, only two sizes smaller. Due to its smaller diameter it sounds a lot higher, almost like a tamborim. A bacurinha brings fresh and different sound colour to your Samba Reggae bloco and is a nice supplement to the classical set of instruments you´ll find in an afro-Samba combo. Bacurinhas have become really popular in Samba Reggae blocos all over Europe.
Small-sized, very compact and fun-to-play repinique with bright red #SelfieCherry aluminium shell and matching red hardware. Light-weight 8'' mini-repinique by Gope.

"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.
