Small Cimbalom

Bring the vibrant, complex harmonic colors of traditional Eastern European music to your ensemble with the Hora Small Cimbalom, masterfully built at the historic Hora Instruments factory in Reghin, Romania. Historically celebrated as the rhythmic and melodic heart of the Taraf (traditional folk orchestra), the small or portable cimbalom delivers a brilliant, metallic, and highly percussive acoustic resonance. It stands as an exceptional choice for conservatory students, world music multi-instrumentalists, and professional folk musicians looking for high structural durability and rich acoustic depth.

The structural framework of this traditional hammered dulcimer relies entirely on genuine European tonewoods that have undergone more than five years of natural ageing, guaranteeing outstanding climate stability and high tuning retention.
