This classic tambourine from Percussion Plus is an essential for the music classroom. It is the perfect instrument for beginner percussionists and a great way to get children exploring different beats and rhythms.The tambourine has a birch plywood frame which is comfortable to hold as well as sturdy, so it is able to withstand use in the classroom. A natural goatskin head is stretched taut over the wooden shell and makes a bright resonant sound when struck. The single row of jingles, or zils, are built into the frame and produce a crisp jingling sound when the tambourine is shaken.It is finished in Percussion Plus's trademark red making it a wonderfully bright and colourful addition to any classroom.
