Our medium-sized
Italian style tambourine features a unique set of hand
cut, dry jingles paired with a loosely fitted synthetic
head to create a drum that emphasizes a robust yet tinny-jingle
dynamic on top of a forcefully played drum. Many regional tamburello techniques
may be explored with this mid-range model, but typically
the drum is gripped in the left hand and the right hand
is used to produce fast, pivoting, triple-stroke rolls
moving from thumb to the side of the hand to a full slap. The
drum is designed to be light in weight, with an arch grip,
and the jingle slots staggered staggered to emphasize continuous
rolls. The REMO Renaissance head produces a warm
sound with an excellent range of dynamics
