These cymbals have all the classic sound ingredients expected from a Viennese cymbal. A clear and full response for all types of situations, from concert halls to outdoor performances.

All models have been individually cast in the Boston factory to achieve a perfect blend of harmonics, balance, and response.

This model has the thinnest thickness of the Zildjian symphonic cymbal series. Light and with a quick attack that blends perfectly with the string and brass sections.

The alloy
Known as Zildjian Secret Alloy, this B20 alloy consists of 80% copper and 20% tin with traces of silver. This B20 alloy can be challenging to work with, as it requires extensive reworking and annealing due to its naturally fragile state, but Zildjian has been using it for over 400 years.
This versatility allows Zildjian A cymbals to be a staple in all types of music, from jazz to rock.
