Paiste 24" Brilliant Symphonic Gong With Tai Loi (#YEL100)

Hear how bright your soul really is with a 24" Paiste Brilliant Symphonic Gong.

Shiny and expressive in a slightly different manner than traditional Paiste Symphonic Gongs. The Symphonic Brilliant Gongs are identical in construction to the Symphonic Gongs but are laboriously hand polished to achieve their distinctive mirror-like look.

The sound of the Brilliant models differs slightly from the regular Symphonic Gongs. They build up their overtone structure slightly more rapidly, and sometimes you feel the mid-range become a wash a little faster.

This is a joyous gong, it's flavor darker, more mysterious than the regular symphonic gongs at times. Crashier and splashier at other times.

Going back decades, Paiste has paid homage to the Chinese gong-making tradition by offering some of their Symphonic gongs with the traditional Chinese Tai Loi symbols, which can be roughly translated to English as "The Bad will depart, the Good shall arrive" or more simply, "Happiness has arrived."

We recommend purchasing an M3 Paiste Gong Mallet for this gong!

Paiste Bronze Gongs are works of sonic mastery. They are hand-hammered from CuSn8 Bronze- 92% copper and 8% tin - in the European gong-making tradition. Bronze Gongs provide an abundant spectrum of frequencies and harmonics. They are individual, versatile, and spirited.

When the sound of Paiste’s bronze gongs is compared to the same size nickel silver instruments, the bronze ones generally present a lower fundamental note, warmer character, and a more voluminous sound.

Due to the molecular property of bronze, these gongs will change more noticeably over time than their nickel-silver counterparts. The tension release that comes from playing as well as the natural aging of the metal create an evolution of each Paiste Bronze Gong in league with the influence of the gong player.

The design of the Paiste Bronze Gong No. 8, with its concentric, textured ridges is a completely new gong design from Paiste. Playing this gong will be a new exciting adventure for even the most experienced gong player. These gongs maintain a deep, focused fundamental when played at the center but have great potential for finding new sonic layers with all kinds of mallets.
