Kolberg 2195P Wind Machine "Forte" with Rumbling Effect
Lightning, thunder and cloudbursts - these are the essential elements of a thunderstorm. But to dote the frighteningly beautiful natural spectacle with perfection, something else is missing: the wind. As orchestral literature demonstrates, composers have implemented thunderstorm phenomena in a great variety of ways on a large scale and have preferred the use of percussion instruments for this purpose. They recognised its diverse sound spectrum, which ideally imitates natural sounds.
Description
In this variant of the wind machine "Forte" the interior of the shell is additionally filled with large wooden blocks. When the shell is rotated, both the wind noise and a thunder/rumble occur. The rumbling can be varied or completely removed by removing the wooden blocks via a flap on the shell. Accordingly, this instrument can be used both as a pure wind machine and as a rumble machine.
Literature sample

General details
- Shell diameter approx. 70 cm
- A foot on the stand is extendable for more stability when turning
- The detachable crank handle can be inserted into the wind machine at rest - saving space during storage and transport
