Grover Endorser and St. Louis Symphony Principal Percussionist, Will James, visited our factory last Wednesday. Will came by to check out our new Bantamweight tambourines, musical anvils and other new Grover Pro products. While here Will gave us a sneek preview of his upcoming book, "Modern Concert Snare Drum Roll". It's a comprehensive volume focusing on rolls often referred to as "buzz", "press", "closed" and "orchestral" rolls.
Will's book is scheduled be published by Gar Whaley's Meredith Music in 2014.
Our new Dual-Tone Anvil Mallet is designed for using on anvils and other metallophones. The solid brass beater surface produces a brilliant, metallic sonority - while the softer nylon side produces a warmer, softer tonality with less surface attack.
The 8.5" tapered hardwood handle facilitates rapid and easy execution of difficult rhythmic passages. The dual-tone head is 2.5" in length, making it easy to flip when needed. The mallet weighs in at 3.75 ounces.
Now available in our online shop!
