The glockenspiel is made up of tuned metal keys arranged horizontally in the same fashion as a xylophone. Also known as orchestra bells, the glockenspiel is played with a set of mallets to produce a bright, penetrating sound that can be heard in music ranging from classical pieces like Handel's "Saul" and Mozart's "Die Zauberflöte" to Rush's hit song "Closer to the Heart". If you're a Neil Peart fan and want to emulate his sweet sound on the glock, check out a set of bells like the Majestic 2.5-Octave Orchestra Bells. They feature precision-tuned 1-1/4" wide bars for maximum resonance and sustain that sounds exceptionally well in live performance settings.
This selection also features a variety of single bells that each bring something different to your percussion setup. If you love the sound of samba, you're going to want to pick up a Gon Bops Tumbao Series Cha Cha Bell. Designed for mounted use, this bell offers a lively sound with a dry medium pitch that lends itself perfectly to Latin-inspired music. Another great single bell option is the Aluphone Hand Bell. Suitable for music education and elementary music training, this single bell is attached to a beautiful wooden handle and can be played individually or as part of a handbell choir.
Since there are so many different orchestra bells and glockenspiels to browse, try to spend some time getting to know a little more about each one. You never know when the right instrument is going to jump off the page and into your percussion setup.
