Adams 0.5 Octave Philharmonic 1.5" Satin Bass Chimes
Adams 0.5 Octave Philharmonic Satin Brass Bass Chimes recreate the sound of church bells with huge amounts of sustain and power thanks to each 1.5"-wide tube's thick walls. The timeless satin finish on each note gives the instrument a grand aesthetic fit for ancient halls.
These chimes are the best (and heaviest) Adams has to offer, made for the best professional orchestras and musical ensembles in the world.
Ranging from F4 to B5, these chimes sit in an elegantly sturdy frame, letting you instantly dampen or let ring the tubes via the foot pedal. A dampener lock pin allows you to keep the notes ringing without needing to hold your foot on the pedal.
Locking casters prevent the instrument from moving when using the pedal. A full-length cover and two chime hammers are included.
The seven notes on this set of chimes are lower than the standard C5-F6 range. These special supplemental chimes are occasionally needed for orchestral and wind ensemble literature.
