Bell cymbal
A bell cymbal or bell splash cymbal is a small, very thick cymbal with little if any taper, used as an effects cymbal in a drum kit. The sound produced when striking the bell cymbal with a drumstick is a distinctive high-pitched ping sound with a long sustain. Some manufacturers list bell cymbals as a type of splash cymbal, others as a distinct type.
The name bell cymbal is suggestive both of its tone, which is distinctly bell like, and also the earliest examples, which were made by drummers cutting down a larger cymbal (often one damaged at the rim) so that only the bell of the cymbal remained.
Bell cymbals vary greatly in profile. In some, there is no bow at all, the entire cymbal is in the shape of a concave downwards cymbal bell, similar to the earliest examples. Others have the shape of a traditional Turkish cymbal, with a smallish bell in proportion to the size of the cymbal, and still others are intermediate between these two extremes.
Bell cymbals are most commonly six to ten inches in diameter, but larger and smaller examples are found occasionally, down to four inches, and Paiste make one at thirteen inches.

Ein Sterbelied Auf Metall
Ein Sterbelied Auf Metall
scharfe zungen wie gewetzte klingen
ein scheusal alt, heimtïckisch und kalt
massen im trichter des blutes sich ballend
wenn stahl ist die formulierung einer Tat
erscheinungen mit ringen gefestigt
g�tterschwïrme verblassen im neuen glanz
in finsternis wollen sie zugrunde gehen
wie das von uns nie gesehene gold
in des einen kraft versinkt die freiheit
fïr das fleisch welches unterzugehen vermag
durch die herzen
bohrt sich das sterbelied auf metall
ein ehrgeiziges werk
im schicksal der jahrtausende
kr�nze der hoffnung
streuen verwïstende blïten
leben kïsst den kod mit breitem mund
ein volk am rande der nacht
wenn es brennt
am stahl der einsamkeit
doch trïume erklingen rastlos
vor dem kessel des letzten heizers
ich mensch,
der von der erinnerung singt
...und im schatten
