These marimba mallets are made from a combination of hard acrylic-style and hard rubber cores to create a full, bright tone and rich fundamental. She-e Wu Series A unique approach and exceptional musicality sets a performer apart from all others. With that in mind we are proud to introduce a new series of marimba mallets that perfectly reflects the artist they were designed to represent. The She-e Wu Signature Series Marimba Mallets from Innovative Percussion feature six mallets of varying hardness, with natural birch handles and a custom blended yarn wrap. Each captures the unique style, sensitivity, and essence of the artist that is She-e Wu. She-e Wu is Associate Professor of Music and Chair of Performance and Jazz Faculties at the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey where she directs the Rutgers Percussion Ensemble (winner of the 2004 Percussive Arts Society International Percussion Ensemble Competition) and coordinates the Percussion Program.
