SABIAN 19" Artisan Suspended Cymbal

The SABIAN 19" Artisan Suspended delivers a dark, nuanced voice built for orchestral and concert performance. Hand-hammered construction creates responsive articulation and complex sustain, rewarding intentional playing across both delicate and assertive strike techniques. This cymbal is engineered for musicians who demand sophisticated tonal control in classical and contemporary concert settings.

Tonal Character & Performance

The dark sound profile produces deep, complex harmonic content ideal for orchestral contexts where clarity within ensemble texture is essential. The thin weight classification delivers sensitivity and quick response while maintaining substantial projection in larger acoustic spaces, making this cymbal equally responsive to suspended rolls and crash applications in orchestral writing.

Construction & Materials

Hand-hammered B20 bronze construction ensures the consistent quality and tonal complexity expected in professional concert cymbal work. This time-honored approach creates the responsive sustain necessary for dynamic range control across a wide spectrum of performance demands.
