  • PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS of the ORCHESTRA Cabasa
    PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS OF THE ORCHESTRA Cabasa - A rattle consisting of a small gourd covered with a loose network of strung beads. It is held by a handle and shaken with a rotating motion. Claves - A pair of hardwood cylinders, each approximately 20 cm. long. One cylinder rests against the fingernails of a loosely formed fist (cupped to act as a resonator) and is struck with the other cylinder. Cowbell - A metal bell, usually with straight sides and a slightly expanding, nearly rectangular cross section. A type without a clapper and played with a drumstick is most often used in orchestras. Castanets - Consists of two shell-shaped pieces of wood, the hollow sides of which are clapped together. They produce an indefinite pitch and are widely used in Spanish music especially to accompany dance. When used in an orchestra, they are often mounted on either side of a piece of wood that is held by the player and shaken. Sleigh bells - Small pellet bells mounted in rows on a piece of wood with a protruding handle. Tambourine - A shallow, single-headed frame drum with a wooden frame in which metal disks or jingles are set. It is most often held in one hand and struck with the other. Bongos - A permanently attached pair of small, single-headed, cylindrical or conical drums. One drum is of slightly larger diameter and is tuned about a fifth below the smaller. The pair is held between the knees and struck with the hands. Maracas - A Latin American rattle consisting of a round or oval-shaped vessel filled with seeds or similar material and held by a handle.

Munich Philharmonic Orchestra The cradle allows for the perfect set-up." Michael Schumm Haggard “Tredegar Town Band feel pleased and privileged to be able to team up with an iconic British brand such as Premier. We feel that Tredegar and Premier are forward thinking organisations, both committed to very high standards.” Steve Barnett Tredegar Town Band “I have been using Premier instruments for gigs, concerts and recordings for a long time. These instruments always give me total satisfaction during my performances thanks to their great quality of sound and projection and ease of transportation. I highly recommend Premier instruments to all my fellow percussionists.” William Ramos "The Premier Elite Series timpani give Independent me the possibility to play all styles of music without any limit, and makes me so comfortable I feel like I am at home all over the world." Frederic Macarez Orchestre De Paris "From my first professional gig, there were always Premier instruments - not only did I consider myself fortunate to play those fantastic instruments, they became my reference in quality and sound." Martin Esser Independent "From my oldest Premier kit, a legendary Resonator, to my Elite Series timpani, Premier's instruments are reliable and deliver night after night, show after show. If you want the best, choose Premier, nothing else comes close." Stephan Schott Independent 2 AN UNRIVALLED HISTORY Premier’s reputation in orchestral music may be traced back to its very earliest years when soon after its inception in 1922, the company began to craft a variety of orchestral instruments to add to its highly sought after range of jazz drumsets.

  • Cineperc 1.1 Manual V3
    Welcome to CinePerc v1.1! Cinesamples is proud to present CinePerc, our comprehensive percussion library. CinePerc comes in four parts; Core, Pro, Epic, and Aux. All of these instruments were recorded in excruciating detail at the SONY Scoring Stage in Los Angeles, and mixed by master engineer Dennis Sands. CORE The Core library brings you the bread and butter of the orchestral percussion section - generally instruments that were standard in pre-20th Century scores. This set of instruments will cover a large part of your day-to-day orchestral percussion needs. PRO CinePerc PRO includes many more percussion instruments for your orchestral template. In general these patches give you control over sounds that were more recently standardized in 20th Century music. EPIC CinePerc EPIC is the most beastly of the four CinePerc packages. This library includes enormous-sounding single and ensemble percussion patches to give your cues that punch they need. Trailer music composers will find themselves reaching for these patches first to get that larger-than-life sound. AUX CinePerc AUX is an expansion to the other CinePerc options that will expand your template along with your creativity. This expansion includes ethnic instruments, toys, and other knick-knacks to give your pieces an extra flavor. What’s New in v1.1 All Libraries: • Changed Patch List names to be better searchable by “importance” • Added 6db to all patches to make the full mix blend better with other libraries • ON MOST libraries (where we had keyboard real estate) Rolls were stretched to A# with no release, so you have an option to have a release trigger (playing “B”) or not have a release trigger.
