Georges and Benjamin, "The Little Gem"
Double row 8”
This tambourine is built for that ‘little’ something extra – not the weight and volume of a 10” instrument or larger, but with a full range of colour, texture and dynamic contrast with thirteen pairs of jingles. Utilising our PATENDED MIXED JINGLES, you are assured of having the most responsive and sensitive tambourine available in today’s market. Just what you need for that audition....that recital....that recording.....made deliberately to take the pressure off some of our most high pressure situations. The instrument should HELP you. It should be EASY to play....EASY to hold.....and not need any fussy changes to the instrument or your technique. Come with its own little bag too...
"GdB has created an amazing “Little Gem”. Though it’s not the size instrument some might consider, it’s definitely a sound colour that makes it bigger than its actual measurements. It is a small, complex sounding instrument that should have a place in any percussionist’s collection of tambourine sounds. It brings a new twist of possibilities packed into its small package. The rapid repertoire changes witnessed on orchestral stages around the world are entering through the percussion section. And this Little Gem helps add to the percussion section’s wall of sound that will need to be built to capture and sustain these incoming musical offerings."
