Advice from our percussion specialists
Percussion specialist Jurjen Daemen in Ittervoort and Jurgen Moelans in Lummen are happy to help. Jurjen came to percussion through the Limburg band and ensemble scene and has built his knowledge in the brass and percussion sector from there. As conductor of several Limburg percussion ensembles, he knows what percussionists need.
Tell us who the gift is for, what your budget is and what the musician plays. Our specialists will have a suggestion.

Percussion Accessories
A metronome is perhaps the most fundamental practice tool for a percussionist: timing is everything. For beginners, a digital metronome is practical and versatile. Many experienced percussionists prefer a mechanical metronome: no batteries, a recognisable ticking sound and consistent reliability.
Practice pads are a good gift for percussionists who want to practise at home without disturbing the neighbours. These quiet pads replicate the rebound of a real timpani or drum and suit practice of rudiments and technique. There is plenty of choice: from small pads that fit on the lap to larger double-sided pads with different hardness levels for varied practice.
Mallet Accessories
For percussionists who work with timpani, marimbas or vibraphones, mallets are the essential tool. A mallet bag keeps mallets and their vulnerable heads safely stored, with separate compartments per stick and reinforced sides for transport.
Stage organisation is something most percussionists keep putting off. A mallet rack placed next to the instrument keeps all the mallets needed within reach. No searching between pieces, no sticks on the floor. For percussionists who switch quickly between soft and hard, or between rubber and yarn, that is not a luxury but simply good working practice.
