Cymbals are a percussion instrument used in music. For whole sets of cymbals, the name "iron" is most often used. Also often in the jargon of musicians you can hear the name "kitchen" of the drummer. Cymbals as a musical instrument became widespread in the Renaissance, when composers, in search of new motives, began to attract new sounds to the orchestra. One such innovation was the cymbals.

It is not known for certain who first began to use cymbals in their scores, but many musical researchers tend to believe that it was the Austrian composer Christoph Willibald Gluck. What is this percussion instrument? As a rule, all plates are round and convex in the center. The sound that can be extracted from such an instrument depends not only on the strength of the blow, but also on the position where it was aimed. Also, very important is the alloy of materials from which the plate was made. In the modern music world there are 4 different alloys, each of which gives its own characteristic sound. However, all alloys are usually based on copper. Today it is not difficult to buy plates or a set of plates in Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov, Poltava, Nikolaev, Lvov, Chernigov, Dnepropetrovsk, Sumy, Simferopol, Kherson, Donetsk or any other city in Ukraine.
