Good, but a little bit overly heavy

A bit heavy for their hardness. Other than that, a wonderful mallet
The Marimba One Ivana Bilic model IBR3 Boy Alto mallets are a “shy” mallet that doesn't look for a flashy entrance. It is slightly lighter and softer then IBR5, introspective with a pure and “innocent” sound, and ideal for chamber music and J.S. Bach.
Ivana Bilic wanted her new mallet line to emphasize the singing characteristic of the marimba, by relating the sound that each mallet makes to human vocal qualities. Her definitions for each mallet combine the ideal playing range for a mallet with the color/timbre of its sound.
These mallets are on Rattan Handles.
