Meinl Cymbals B22SYR Byzance Jazz 22-Inch Ralph Peterson

Meinl Cymbals B22SYR Byzance Jazz 22-Inch Ralph Peterson Signature Symmetry Ride Cymbal
- Hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 bronze — reminiscent and futuristic with growl, clarity, and a large bell, the Byzance Jazz 22 Symmetry Ride goes from a soft edge with a flexible feel to a clear, articulate, dry sound as you move up the bow
- Ralph Peterson Jr. Signature — the main ride in Ralph’s kit, the Symmetry Ride is the parent cymbal to Ralph’s signature Nuance Ride — the ride has a soft edge which gives the cymbal its wobble, allowing low overtones to speak without wash taking over
- Large bell — one thing Ralph noticed about great big band drummers is that they used rides with large bells to help project and cut through — the hammering and steep shape of this bell adds a complex sound that’s blanketed in overtones as it cuts through
- Suits numerous styles — the Symmetry ride fits in with straight-head jazz, Afro-Cuban, funk and more — its abilities to weave through any mix make it suitable for just about any musical setting
- A great pairing — a long time professor at Berklee and protégé of Art Blakey, Ralph settled into the Symmetry and Nuance rides after trial and error with the build process to arrive at cymbals that reflect his truth without him having to dig it out.Modern versatility rooted in tradition — hand hammered into shape in Turkey using cast B20 bronze, Meinl Byzance cymbals are deeply rooted in traditional cymbal crafting methods, yet their old-world background is dialed-in to 21st century needs.
Their hand hammered and lathed surfaces with warm sounds and selection of models may be rooted in tradition, but MEINL Byzance cymbals are the ultimate choice when it comes to modern versatility. Every Byzance model is hand hammered into shape by cymbal artisans in Turkey, giving each cymbal its own unique and colorful voice. The overall presence that MEINL Byzance delivers is dark, buttery warmth that flows around crisp definition. The Byzance 22" Symmetry Ride was developed in cooperation with renowned jazz drummer and Meinl artist, Ralph Peterson. The hammering, lathing techniques, and bell are all designed to not only give this cymbal a distinct voice, but also to allow the cymbal to be used for many different musical styles. From funk and R&B to straight ahead jazz, it is reminiscent of old school sounds, yet futuristic with its playability, clarity and underlying growl. A dry character and complex wash make this cymbal relevant in todayâ€™s music with a homage to the early era of jazz, R&B, and funk.
