Here's the entire range of LAPR's tuned almglocken. PLEASE NOTE: this example is using very hard mallets, and this instrument can sound depending on mallet choice and application. Shown are two options for setup: stacked/multi-manual and linear/spread-out.
Please note: these are just examples, as playing technique and mallet/stick choices often have a great effect on the timbre.
