SABIAN 19” Artisan Medium Light pairs respond quickly with rich, warm tone and are ideal for playing with moderate to loud dynamics. They have a splashier quality and shorter sustain than Artisan Medium Heavy pairs. Their size and weight make them ideal for single or successive loud crashes. SABIAN 19” Artisan Medium Light pairs are a very popular choice for playing orchestral excerpts and auditions. Inspired by leading percussionists looking to replace aging orchestral models, Artisan pairs improved upon original, century-old cymbals to become the benchmark by which all hand cymbals are measured. Available in Medium Light and Medium Heavy weights in sizes 16" through 20", SABIAN Artisan hand cymbals combine traditional high-density hand hammering with modern jumbo-peen dimpling on the underside to produce a design that is ideal for performing any repertoire.
