Turkish Cymbals Jazz Series

The Jazz series by Turkish Cymbals is designed for musicians seeking an expressive, sensitive and nuanced sonic spectrum. Both surfaces are intensively hand-hammered to create a deep structural complexity; after the first forging step, large, deep dents are additionally worked into the top before the cymbal is lathed. Every Jazz cymbal is cast by hand in Istanbul from premium B20 bronze: an elaborate process that gives the series its warm, defined sound.

Warm, defined sound with a fine response

The deep hammer strikes and the lathed bell give the Jazz cymbals a warm, focused tone with a musical sustain and clear articulation. The result is maximum dynamics and expressiveness at minimal volume – ideal for sensitive, demanding playing. Anyone seeking similarly warm, traditionally finished cymbals will also find them in the Millennium and Vintage Soul series.

Musical styles and cymbals in the series

With its warm, sensitive character, the Jazz series is especially suited to traditional jazz, fusion, bop and experimental styles. The series includes a Crash with a warm attack and musical sustain – also as a Crash Thin with a fast, sensitive response –, a Hi-Hat with a sharp chick and warm character (also as a Hi-Hat Light), and a Ride with a warm wash and clear articulation, also as a Ride Light with an open wash. This lets you build a complete, sensitive setup from a single series.
