Marimba Mallets Signature Jean Geoffroy - 02 Soft
The Signature Jean Geoffroy 02 mallets produce a warm, round and rich sound, with a fine presence in the low and middle registers. The definition remains full and balanced, with warmth dominating without ever hardening the timbre. The feel reveals a characteristic grain in the sound that gives the model a particularly expressive identity.
Their rounded, deep and responsive attack encourages broad, nuanced playing. The projection is generous, with fine richness in the low and middle frequencies. Their excellent response and wide dynamic range allow a great deal of expressiveness to be retained at every dynamic.
The density of the head gives the sound a full-bodied tone, depth and foundation, while bringing out the fundamental.
Available with wooden or rattan handles.
"Inseparable from a breath, a gesture, a sound, a phrasing, the mallets are the essential element, of my work as a musician, before the marimba itself... These mallets are more than just simple mallets. They are a suggestion, an invitation to look for again and again a sound in which we find ourself, the one that will enable us to play, "to play with", and then to try to reach our musician’s dreams."
J. Geoffroy

L'artiste
Jean Geoffroy: International solo percussionist and educator.
"Inseparable from a breath, a gesture, a sound, a phrasing, these mallets are the essential element of my work as a musician, well before the marimba itself... They are far more than mere mallets; they are a sonic proposition, an invitation to search again and again for the sound in which we recognise ourselves, the one that will allow us to play, to make music, and thus to try to move closer to our musicians' dreams." J. Geoffroy
