We recorded an old Jeu de Timbre created by Auguste Mustel the inventor of the Celesta. Also known as the Keyboard Glockenspiel, it was used in many masterpieces : Daphnis et Chloé (Ravel), La Mer (Debussy), l’Apprenti Sorcier (Dukas) to name a few.

This instrument has a more precise and sparkling sound than the Glockenspiel. You’ll also appreciate the organic feel of its hammers.

We designed the patches to sound good out of the box. « Daphnis et Chloé » is perfect if you want to put the instrument behind the orchestra while « The Apprentice » offers a closer and more defined sound (which can also be used in orchestral context).
