Drums of the Magnificent Community of Mestre

The use of "tamburini" during the Middle Ages is attested by numerous Statutes and Capitulary; in fact, they often accompanied the messengers of the Podestà or the Doge in delivering letters or ordinances to the population. They were also used to accompany armies into battle: the rolling sound of the drums instilled fear in their enemies.

Presentation

The new group is made up of young members of the Pro Loco Mestre Association, based on an idea by Councilor Luca Bordon and Claudio Ghezzo.

The group currently consists of 1 banner bearer, 5/6 drummers and some figures in historical costume.

The group offers performances of historical drums only, with rhythms designed to create sound at the events in which it participates.
