Zildjian - K Constantinople 17" Special Selection (la paire)

The Zildjian K Constantinople 17" Special Selection, offered as a pair, is aimed at percussionists seeking a denser, more assertive response for orchestral playing. Compared with lighter models, this Medium Heavy version provides more substance from impact, with a fuller attack and a sonic presence that settles in immediately.

From the moment of contact, the cymbals develop a rich register, with well-defined low harmonics. This work on the lower frequencies allows the orchestra to merge more effectively, particularly in passages where cohesive sound is essential. The sound remains dark, with the warmth typical of the K Constantinople, but gains in breadth and projection.

This model lends itself particularly well to straightforward attacks and strong accents. The response is direct, with a generous sustain that naturally extends the gesture without becoming intrusive. There's also a great deal of expressiveness in the nuances, so you can modulate your playing according to the context, whether in tutti or on more occasional interventions.

Supplied with leather straps, these cymbals are ready to be used in orchestral situations. They are ideal for classical repertoire, symphonic music and contemporary works where a full, dark, structured sound is required.
