Description
Precise in rhythm and warm in sound: the Rohema Rakatak Green combines the simple playing motion of a maraca with its own distinctive method of sound production. Moving the instrument back and forth creates a characteristic clattering tone reminiscent of galloping horses or the rattle of a rattlesnake.
There is no loose shaker filling inside the hollow resonating body. Instead, a movable wooden striker runs through its upper section. With every movement, the balls of the striker hit the sides of the body and create a clearly defined sound. This makes it possible to play rhythms precisely and accent individual beats.
The Rakatak is made from beechwood and finished with wax. The balls of the striker are lacquered green with a saliva- and sweat-resistant finish. The green Rakatak produces a warmer and darker sound than the yellow and red models in the series.
