Description

Encore 35YR Yarn Wound Soft Marimba Mallets are designed to deliver a deep, resonant sound that brings out the rich tonal color of the marimba’s lower register. Perfect for slow, expressive passages and warm harmonic textures, these mallets are a favorite among players seeking softness without sacrificing definition.

Materials and Build Quality

The 35YR mallets feature a soft core wrapped in high-quality yarn, carefully tensioned to ensure a smooth, consistent sound across the instrument. The yarn helps to reduce attack noise while enhancing the marimba’s natural warmth. Mounted on durable rattan shafts, these mallets offer a slight flexibility that adds nuance and comfort to every stroke. Each pair is hand-matched by Encore to ensure even tone, weight, and response.

Performance and Use Case

These mallets shine in lyrical solos, chorales, and ensemble parts that benefit from subtle dynamics and rich timbre. Their softness makes them ideal for expressive rolls and blended textures, particularly in the low and mid ranges of the marimba. They are equally well-suited for solo recitals, chamber music, and orchestral works requiring a gentle yet full-bodied voice.

Key Features

  • Soft core for warm, resonant tone and subtle attack
  • Premium yarn wrap reduces contact noise
  • Flexible rattan shafts for enhanced sensitivity and control
  • Ideal for lyrical playing, chorales, and blended ensemble textures
