Klaus Schwärzler

Klaus Schwärzler is principal percussionist in the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra and Professor of Percussion at the Zurich University of the Arts. Also proficient on the accordion, he is founder and leader of the "Alpenblech" band, where he demonstrates his prowess on percussion.

His two stick models differ only in the type of wood used, which are distinct in weight and sound.

The spherical tip gives a succinct attack on both cymbal and snare-drum.
