Practical, soft padded, allrounder:
a good priced alternative for instruments that are played on only 1 hook, e.g. in Rio style Samba Caixa (half high or played down), repinique, cuica and surdo.
The open hook system is the most common one in Brazil as it enables you to change instruments quickly and is easiest to handle.

ARTCELSIOR is Rio´s most traditional company for building and creating new instruments.

ARTCELSIOR´s people know exactly, how samba instruments are supposed to sound. They constantly receive feedback from the small to the large Rio samba schools. Together with the experience of thousands of sambistas, the drums have become as successful as they are today.
