World Introduction of new Majestic Mallet Instruments

On Wednesday, 12 March 2008 we introduced the new Majestic mallets at the Frankfurt Musikmesse fair. After an exciting development period which included lots of work and effort from our worldwide percussion team, the introduction finally arrived.

The spectacular introduction was specially composed and performed by Dutch percussionists Robert Dorn and Peter Vulperhorst. They showcased what the new standard for mallet instruments will be from that day forward. The performance was supported by DVD animation made by Oppewal Productions Holland and Bea Grootscholten.

Throughout the whole fair the performance was shown every hour. We received an overwhelming reaction from the audience, not only about the instruments but also about the music. After a lot of requests for the scores and music, Peter and Robert agreed to produce a complete album for mallet, timpani and percussion which will be ready in 2009.

You can watch this specially made recording for the introduction online. At the fair it ran in the background while Peter and Robert played the mallet parts live. Later this year there will be an updated version which will include the mallet parts. Click here to watch it.
