New concept of multitone mallets with a great versatility. The intention and the articulation of the interpreter increases the possibilities of this model giving multiple sounds, from round sounds in the lowest part of the instrument, to harder sounds in the high part. It depends on your intention when attack the note. This a perfect model to start to work the attack control, little bit more risky than numbers 3 & 4, to let the students feel how many different sounds they can get with the same set of mallets playing with a different intention.
Nuno Aroso says:
"This is the harder model of the Protean series and the one that offers the
musician a staccato quality when needed Provides a sharp and brilliant attack as
well as an amazing control of the sound. As a truly multitone mallet, you will find
possible to roll, play very soft whispered or deep fundamental sounds with an
amazing involving resonance and feeling. Recommended for works with a
extreme range of dynamics and registers."
Protean series has been designed by ELITE MALLETS in collaboration with the teacher and contemporary concert player Nuno Aroso.
