Chocalho / Rocar Slim with Extra-Slim Aluminium Frame – 30 Chrome Sheet Jingles (60 Individual Plates)
No bateria is complete without a chocalho! Its bright, sparkling sound adds a whole new layer to the groove and balances out the deeper tones of other instruments. The chocalho cuts through the mix beautifully and is perfect for hyping up the crowd – it's got that irresistible energy that gets people moving!
This model has a sturdy aluminium frame made from extra-slim flat pieces, making it a bit lighter than the Pro version. Some sambistas like to wrap fabric around the handles for a more comfortable grip – feel free to tweak it to your taste.
The jingles are made from chrome sheet and have a fairly dry, crisp sound. A real beauty, this one!

Brand information
Contemporânea
CONTEMPORÂNEA in Brazil
This brand has a long tradition and good reputation in Brazil. Intensive contact to the musicians has always been an important part of their business strategy. They not only sell instruments, but mainly live their music. Every Saturday morning, many musicians meet up in CONTEMPORÂNEA´S music shop in the historic center of São Paulo. In a special back room, musicians of every age play Choro. The pagodeiros meet up in front of the shop for playing their sessions. Many of São Paulo´s smaller and larger Samba schools play CONTEMPORÂNEA instruments.
CONTEMPORÂNEA in Europe
Also in Europe CONTEMPORÂNEA is a popular brand which you sometimes even find in drum- and percussion shops that don´t have so much to do with Samba.
Instruments
CONTEMPORÂNEA has two lines: CONTEMPORÂNEA LIGHT and CONTEMPORÂNEA PRO.
The instruments of the LIGHT line are made of matt aluminium. Kept in a simple design and not being polished, the LIGHT line can be offered at a lower price and without suffering quality loss in terms of sound or durability. The robust PRO line is made of polished aluminium or wood.
Compared to other brands that also use aluminium for building instruments, CONTEMPORÂNEA instruments made from aluminium stand out by being built of thicker material which provides a massive sound to repinique, caixa and surdo, but therefore also a higher weight.
