Marimba Mallets Signature Jean Geoffroy - 03.5 Medium Semi-Soft
The Signature Jean Geoffroy 03.5 mallets produce a warm, rich and very balanced sound, with an excellent compromise between warmth, depth and clarity.
This model is one of the most widely played in the world thanks to its expressiveness, its versatility and its ability to adapt to many repertoires. The projection is excellent, while the attack remains at once deep, precise and versatile. Their wide dynamic range and excellent response allow particularly expressive nuances to be retained.
The dense head gives the sound a full-bodied tone, depth and foundation, while bringing out the fundamental. This model is particularly suited to repertoire such as J. S. Bach's Sonatas and Partitas for violin, the works of Éric Sammut and Pius Cheung, and more broadly the contemporary solo repertoire.
Available with rattan or wooden 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
