Jim Babor
Jim has also performed with the Cleveland Orchestra, the Toronto Symphony, and the New World Symphony, and is a frequent performer on the Green Umbrella Contemporary Ensemble Series in Los Angeles. "Tom has again come out with a product that sounds great and is made of the highest quality in his Freer line of xylophone and glockenspiel mallets. The rattan is the best that I have seen; thin, but rigid and straight. All of the mallets in the set produce no contact sound with the bar and, at the same time, produce a full fundamental for the note being played. I would highly recommend any of the mallets in this line to the professional or student looking for consistency in craftsmanship and the highest quality of sound." |
