Glockenspiel

A glockenspiel is a musical instrument with a series of metal bars arranged in order of pitch, similar to a keyboard. When struck with small mallets, it produces bright, clear, bell-like sounds. It is frequently used in orchestras and bands to add shimmering, high-frequency tones. Its precise tuning and resonant qualities make it ideal for melodic lines and harmonies that require a bright, piercing sound, providing a distinctive accent in musical compositions.
