Evans Orchestral Coated White Snare Drum Head - 14"

The Evans Orchestral Coated White 14" Snare Drum Head is designed for percussionists who demand sensitivity, consistency, and a beautifully controlled response from their concert snare drum. Developed specifically for orchestral and concert percussion applications, it delivers the articulate sound and dynamic range needed for everything from delicate passages to powerful symphonic accents.

Constructed with a single-ply film and a specialised textured coating, this head offers exceptional stick definition and outstanding brush response, allowing players to explore a wide palette of colours and dynamics with confidence. The coating provides a warm, focused attack while helping maintain clarity and articulation across the entire tuning range.

One of the standout qualities of the Evans Orchestral series is its ability to respond accurately at both the softest and loudest dynamics. Whether performing intricate rudimental passages, concert band repertoire, orchestral works, or percussion ensemble pieces, the head remains balanced, expressive, and highly musical.

The 14" size makes it suitable for a wide variety of concert snare drums, and its carefully voiced design helps produce a refined tone that sits beautifully within larger ensembles without becoming harsh or overly aggressive.

At Musicmaker, Evans Orchestral heads are a trusted choice among percussion students, educators, and professional players looking for reliable performance and a sophisticated concert snare sound.
