Turkish Cymbals Cappadocia Series

The Cappadocia series by Turkish Cymbals takes its name from one of the most fascinating landscapes in the world: Cappadocia in Central Anatolia. Like that ancient region, shaped by wind and time, these cymbals combine character and depth. Made from premium B20 bronze, they offer a broad sonic spectrum with complex, earthy tones, a relatively dry decay and good response. Every Cappadocia cymbal is cast by hand in Istanbul, hand-hammered and lathed – traditional craftsmanship that gives each cymbal its unmistakable character.

Earthy, dry sound with clear response

With its broad dynamic spectrum, the Cappadocia cymbal reproduces both light and powerful strokes clearly and with minimal overtones. The relatively dry decay ensures a controlled, precise tone, while the complex, earthy colours add warmth and depth. The result is a versatile cymbal that holds its own in dense arrangements as well as in intimate, quiet passages. Anyone seeking similarly dark, earthy textures will also find them in the Dark Hammer and Prestige-TR series.

Musical styles and cymbals in the series

With its earthy, dry character, the Cappadocia series is ideal for jazz, funk and (grunge) rock, as well as for jazz-fusion, latin, soul and traditional jazz. The series includes the versatile Crash with an earthy attack, the Ride with a dry wash and powerful projection, the Hi-Hat with a dark chick, and the adaptable Crash-Ride with a controlled wash. This lets you build a complete, sonically homogeneous setup from a single series.
