All Lancio Batons are fitted with pearlescent Silver and come in 12'', 14'' or 16'' sizes. Mollard is legendary for creating batons of unsurpassed craftsmanship. Mollard batons are hand crafted from the finest hardwoods, especially selected for their warmth and beauty. The handles are polished to a lustrous high gloss, and the shafts are finished in clear gloss or bright white. Mollard is legendary for creating batons of superb balance and apparent weightlessness.
Bob Mollard was a graduate conducting student. His conducting teacher suggested he buy a lightweight, well-balanced baton. Mollard was dissatisfied with the quality of what he found. He decided to fashion a baton himself. The effort proved to be a success. Everyone wanted one and they became a huge success that everyone was talking about. That was how Mollard batons were born.
As a result, Mollard Conducting Batons has become the world-wide leader of baton makers. You can find Mollard batons in better music stores world-wide. Mollard is legendary for creating many different baton styles, lengths and weights. There are Mollard batons suited for the smallest chamber ensemble, opera or theatre, military band field work.
The 16'' Gold Baton is perfect for those who want to give an effective performance using a longer baton which would be clear and noticeable to the orchestra especially those who are furthest from the conductor. The 16 inch wood batons have a balance point within 1 inch so the size would be dependent on the individual. The balance point occurs within the front third of the handle itself, which admittedly is a rather unorthodox concept, but one that gives the Lancio batons a surprisingly silky feel.
