The pandeiro
The pandeiro is the national and symbolic instrument of Brazil, used in Capoeira, samba, choro… It is somewhat like a drum measuring 20 to 30 cm in diameter, fitted with an animal or plastic head. Introduced to Brazil by the Portuguese who received it from the Arabs, the pandeiro is a true little pocket drum set,
This model is part of Contemporanea’s high-end range with a yellow formica finish, chrome cymbals, and a holographic head (double head with a holographic paper between the two heads). The double-tension rods allow the head to be properly tightened for playing in samba and particularly in pagode.
This model reflects the quality of craftsmanship unique to Contemporanea!
