Description
This unique cymbal from the Meinl Artist Design Cymbal series is a combination of a musical instrument and a work of art. The ‐Ocean Tides‑ (Engraved Bronze) model was designed in collaboration with Anika Nilles and features her original artwork, making each piece unique.
The cymbal was created as a limited, numbered edition, which emphasizes its collectible character. The project was inspired by the constant movement and variability of the ocean — from subtle, almost whispered sounds to powerful, surging energy.
‐Always in motion, always in rhythm. Sometimes delicate as a whisper from the depths, other times wild and powerful as storm waves. Regardless of the mood — it never stands still.‑
— Anika Nilles
Hand hammering and an engraved bronze finish provide a complex, dark, and short sustain as well as excellent articulation, ideal for studio work and music requiring expression and precision.
