AFRICAN MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

www.kalimba.co.za

African musical instruments. In the 1930's Hugh Tracey brought the Kalimba to the rest of the world as part of his mission to give African Music the global status it deserves. Today there are many immitators, but we continue to be acclaimed as setting the standard for this companionable and uniquely African instrument. We still manufacture a large range of Kalimbas, but have continued to adopt African technology in innovative ways. Our extensive range of xylophones uses indigenous woods and African production technigues. Drums and unusual hand percussion are also now part of our catalogue, and we have recently taken on the manufacture of marimbas.

We are committed to the ideals that inspired Hugh Tracey: to make music (especially African Music) happen. We are also dedicated to more than quality and manufacturing excellence: we play the instruments we make- our staff band 'Ingangalala' performing regularly. We include concepts and principles of African music making into our corporate structure. (...)

LA FLAUTA Y EL TAMBORIL

www.tamborileros.com

La flauta y el tamboril. Instrumentos Tradicionales Ibericos. A modo de breve reseña histórica, podemos decir que la flauta de tres agujeros está estrechamente relacionada con el "Syrin"monocálamus griego, la "Fístula" latina o la "Quesba" griega. La antigua flauta doble latina formada por dos tubos individuales tocados a la vez uno con cada mano sería también muy semejante, aún se conocen casos, por ejemplo en Ibiza, de instrumentistas que tocan con dos pitos a la vez. Con posterioridad, la combinación flauta-tamboril era frecuente en Europa en la Edad Media en manos de juglares, como vemos en la siguiente foto, perteneciente a las Cantigas de Santa María, de Alfonso X "El Sabio", de mediados del S. XIII. (...)
