Nakers
|
The inspiration
for the Nakers set came from one of Ken's sound sculpture creations, the Naggara drums, in
response to interest for a smaller, mass-produced version.
The setup includes two clay, dumbek-shaped
drums finished in a bright brass glaze, resting in a finely crafted wooden table.
The drums are of equal size but have different thickness heads, allowing for varying
timbres. A wooden footpedal is attached to each drum with a dowel linkage, allowing
each drum tuning to be changed while playing. Finally, mounted between the drums is
a hand-carved cherry wood woodblock.
To get a variety of sounds, the Nakers set
comes with a pair of bamboo brushes and a pair of piano hammer mallets.. |
