Byzance Dark cymbals are hand hammered and completely unlathed, exposing the raw B20 bronze with an oven-blackened look. The crashes, splashes and chinas open up just enough, then get out of your way quickly while the hihats and rides provide clarity, cut and volume, along with a prominent dark tone. A special selection within Byzance Dark are the Spectrum hihats and rides that are partially lathed for more definition. These cymbals are made in Turkey from cast B20 bronze and are hand hammered into shape by skilled Turkish cymbal smiths.

Oh yes, there are some incredible Turkish cymbal makers to be certain, no need to mention them. However, as cymbal artist with initials M.D. (many of you know who I'm referring to), brought his craft to the Meinl series of Byzance, the quality went into the realm of superb at a more affordable price. This newest family member of the Meinl Byzance Jazz series is precisely the music to my cymbal musical sound palette that I have been searching for. This "Medium Ride" in the Meinl Byzance Jazz series is just what the ride cymbal doctor ordered and is meeting up to my higher standards that fit more easily into my financial zone. I highly recommend this cymbal, especially this 22" as a musically hammered instrument worthy of all levels of jazz and any musical genre of detailed dynamics.
