2 The world now has a brand-new sound Allow us to present the! Imagine the sounds of a vibraphone, tubular bells and singing bowls coming together in beautiful harmony, and you have the. A brand-new, unique percussion instrument for mallet players, percussionists and drummers. The ranges over an amazing wealth of sounds and tones. If you use soft mallets to play it, you get an almost Asian, meditative sound reminiscent of Japanese temple bells. Medium-hard mallets produce a crystal-clear sound similar to that of a vibraphone. And if you use hard mallets, the produces a strong, harmonic bell sound. The instrument does not use electric or acoustic amplification, yet can still generate both very soft and very powerful sounds. The is available in many different versions, each of which has its own strengths within the music world s many genres.

3 I m really intrigued by the instrument. I m absolutely delighted... Dame Evelyn Glennie

4 Solo Bell You can put a single tone on a stand and place it wherever you like. If you need a tuned bell for a particular setup, the bell can be mounted on top of a cymbal stand in the same way as a cymbal. It can even be placed upside-down on top of a cymbal on a stand. Note: G 3 C6

5 Hand Bell hand bells are handheld bells with a beautiful wooden handle. Can be used in a bell choir or for elementary music training. These great hand bells come in two octaves from G3 - G5. You can play them with mallets and dampen by hand.

6 Hanging Bells A must for many percussion setups. The bells are mounted on a rope and can hang from a stand or wherever you like. They can create a great new sound universe used together with your drums or percussion setup. Have the bells tuned to any scale you like.

7 Bell Tree This is like a new music instrument. For the first time you can get a bell tree with tuned bells! Great for sound effects or even melodic playing. Have the bells tuned in many different scales and sizes. The bell tree has a lovely wooden handle and can be carried.

8 Drum Bell Tree This is a bell tree effect instrument that is designed to be placed on a cymbal stand. It is great for drummers and percussion players. Have the bells tuned to any scale of your choice.

9 Drum Bell The Drum Bell has been developed especially for drummers. It consists of bells that can be mounted on a cymbal stand. It can be used with a drum set, a multi-percussion setup, next to a marimba or in any combination you can imagine. Get the bells in any combination of your choice.

10 Concert Bells This is a chromatic set of Bells, but without a dampening system. It comes with a mounting system that fits into cymbal stands. The Bells have the full range of 2½ octaves from G3 - C6 or 1 octaves from C4 E5, but they can be ordered in any size and range you like. For more details, see Tuning A = 442

11 Concert Grand The flagship product is a 2½ octave mallet instrument related to the marimba and the vibraphone. The concert version has been equipped with a dampening system that can be controlled by foot. Particularly well-suited for solo and ensemble playing. Also available in 1 octaves from C4 E5. For more details, see Range: G3 C6 or C4 E5 Tuning A = 442
