In a concert orchestra, every musical instrument should be of the highest playability and sound quality. This most certainly includes tambourines, and thankfully today's concert tambourines are crafted by experts who know how important their role is in an orchestral pit. Companies like Black Swamp Percussion, Grover Pro, Meinl and many others specialize in concert tambourines that boast crystal-clear clarity and a full, rich projection - and they each offer concert tambourines in this catalog.
For a perfect idea of what kind of concert tambourines can be found on this page, your best bet is to start your search with the best sellers. For example, the Black Swamp Percussion Sound/Art Series 10 inch Tambourine is available in a variety of styles, each of which feature high-quality calfskin heads. From their hand-hammered jingles to their comfortable ergonomic handle design, SoundArt Double Row Tambourines are ideal for any percussion section that demands a crunchy sound with maximum articulation.
While browsing, you'll definitely want to check out what Grover Pro has in store. In fact, many of the greatest orchestral percussionists on the globe agree that Grover Pro tambourines are the "Stradivarius" of concert tambourines, and they have more than one model here to choose from. For a concert tambourine that's considered the professional standard, go with the Grover Projection Plus 10" Tambourine: it features hand-hammered jingles made from Beryllium Copper and a premium "natural skin" head that's glued to a traditional Grover solid shell. Simply put, this concert tambourine has the wide dynamic response and tonal variety needed to make your performances interesting and compelling.
And be sure to give every other concert tambourine in this selection a closer look too. Along with the models mentioned, Grover Pro has tambourines from their Hybrid Series, Sound Value Series and Studio Pro Series as well, and each one offers its own unique sound characteristics. As every experienced percussionist knows, a well-crafted concert tambourine will make an exceptional addition to any concert ensemble, and the perfect one to suit your musical application is waiting right here.
