Meinl CH12 vindspel med 12 guldfärgade stavar

Allmänt

Meinl's CH12 is a set of bar chimes. Bar chimes are a percussive instrument, and this particular edition consists of twelve gold-coloured bars. These bars are made of high-grade anodised aluminium and are attached to a balanced, 26cm wooden beam in a single row, with durable nylon cords. With their wondrous sound, bar chimes can serve multiple purposes for many musicians, bands and orchestras.

Magical and wondrous sound

You can mount this instrument on the separately available Meinl stand and you play it with a beater (which is not included in this purchase). When you drag beater over the gold-coloured bars, you get a wonderfully bright twinkling noise. Especially well suited for music that needs a magical and wondrous atmosphere.

Mark Tree

Bar chimes are also called Mark Trees, a name that comes from the man who invented them in 1967: studio percussionist Mark Stevens. When he couldn't think of a name for his instrument, fellow-percussionist Emil Richards came up with the name Mark Tree.
