Our Innovative Percussion section includes the following categories:

Nebojsa Javan Zivkovic Signature Series Mallets

This Series produces a varying tone that gradually starts to cut through as the dynamic performance increases. It offers multiple timbres in between soft and hard and is the ideal mallet for contemporary works that often include sudden changes between harsh fortissimo runs and tender, rich rolls.

Orchestral Series

This series of 7 orchestral xylophone and glockenspiel mallets has been designed in conjunction with Chris Deviney of the Philadelphia Orchestra with the orchestral player in mind. A coloured piece of tape is also added to the shaft to distinguish each particular model.

James Ross Series

This series has been designed for Chicago Symphony Orchestra percussionist James Ross. Nine different models are offered to meet the demands of today's orchestral percussionist.

Innovative Drumsticks

Designed to meet the needs of any drumset player from small jazz combo to rock and roll.

Fundamental Series

Manufacured by the leader in high quality keyboard mallets, the Fundamental Series Keyboard Mallets were specifically designed with the beginning percussionist and budget conscious band director in mind.

Ensemble Series

These mallets are designed for the indoor ensemble. Various combinations of latex, yarn and large rubber cores produce an extremely warm tone. This quality, combined with dynamic versatility and durability, makes these mallets essential for the extensive repertoire of todays demanding percussion ensemble.

Gong Mallets

The Concert Series Gong Mallets are constructed using large red oak handles for improved control and a brass ring for added weight. Heavy solid rubber cores of two different sizes are used to give the added weight needed to start even the largest gong easily and with minimal effort. Durable synthetic felt liners and covers provide for a full dark tone quality with no contact noise.
