Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
Descended from the oldest drums in the world, the frame drum has established itself in traditional, Celtic, Oriental, and contemporary music. This 45 cm model stands as a versatile reference: a sturdy 6-ply beech frame and a low shell height make it an all-terrain choice, halfway between a lightweight study model and a reliable tool for the stage.
Who This Instrument Is For
Designed for beginners as well as intermediate and advanced musicians, it is suitable for educational workshops, world percussion ensembles, vocal accompaniment, acoustic sessions, and mobile practices. Its reduced height promotes control of hand/mallet strikes and adapts well to both delicate rhythms and more emphatic patterns.
