Three beaters – three tone colours for your triangle
The sound of a triangle is shaped not only by the instrument but also by the thickness of the beater: a thin rod gives a quiet, silvery tinkle, while a thicker one produces a fuller, more powerful ring. This set of 3 contains beaters of three different diameters – approx. 3, 5 and 6 mm – so you can always choose the one that fits the musical moment.
Stainless steel, consistent workmanship
The beaters are made of stainless steel in the USA. The material does not rust, needs no special care, and delivers an even, clean response at any point of the triangle. All three rods fit into any sheet music bag or case.
Which beater should you choose when?
The thinnest beater is ideal for chamber music, quiet passages and delicate ornaments; the middle one is the everyday, all-round choice; and the thickest comes into its own when the triangle needs to be heard above a whole orchestra or group. It is worth trying all three on the same instrument – the difference is surprising.
Who is it for?
Percussionists playing in orchestras and wind bands, music school teachers and students, and anyone looking for durable, quality beaters for the triangle they use in sound baths or group sessions. The set works beautifully with most standard-sized triangles.
