The Suzuki wooden castanets are available in three sizes: small (treble), medium (mid), and large (bass), each offering a distinct pitch. Made from beech wood with an ABS plastic slider and elastic cord, they are lightweight, durable, and suitable for a wide range of musical and educational uses.
Castanets have a long musical history and can be used for developing rhythm skills at any level, from beginner to advanced.
Each castanet features an elastic cord with a sliding adjuster, allowing it to be worn on the fingers, wrist, or even ankle. This makes them suitable for seated or movement-based activities, including dance and ensemble performances.
With bass, mid, and treble options, players can create layered rhythms by combining different sizes. For example, the bass can be held in one hand and the treble in the other to create contrast. They can also be paired with other instruments such as guitar or piano for added rhythmic texture.
Suzuki has a long history in educational instrument manufacturing. These castanets are ideal for music classrooms, workshops, and individual practice, offering a practical way to teach and explore rhythm through movement and sound.
