Grover Pro - Custom Dry™ Silver Tambourine

Katia de Peyer $ 93.10
Description All Custom Dry models feature heat-treated jingles, specially hammered to produce a very dry, distinctive staccato sound. Using the same shell and head as the Projection-Plus models, they were created for percussionists looking for a drier sounding tambourine. An excellent compliment to one of our general-purpose models. These tambourines feature “PERFORMANCE EDGE” natural skin heads. The circumference is designed to enhance finger rolls – no need for wax. Our Heat-Treated Silver tambourine resounds with a superb combination of bright and mid-range sonorities. Producing an articulate, “crunchy” spread of overtones, this tambourine is perfect for passages that require exaggerated articulation. Features include: – Heat-treated silver jingles – Durable Acousticon shell – “Performance Edge” natural skin head – Cordura bag and Roll Ring included – Made in the USA Measurements: 10″ double-row jingles Weight: 875g   Watch the Demonstration of how to hold a tambourine

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
