Glockenspiel
A glockenspiel ((:ˈɡlɔkənˌʃpiːl), ''Glocken'': bells and ''Spiel'': play) is a percussion instrument composed of a set of tuned keys arranged in the fashion of the keyboard of a piano. In this way, it is similar to the xylophone; however, the xylophone's bars are made of wood, while the glockenspiel's are metal plates or tubes, thus making it a metallophone. The glockenspiel, moreover, is usually smaller and higher in pitch.〔George Grove (ed.), ''A Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', 4 vols. (London: Macmillan and Co., 1878–1889).〕
In German, a carillon is also called a ''Glockenspiel'', while in French, the glockenspiel is often called a ''carillon''. In music scores the glockenspiel is sometimes designated by the Italian term ''campanelli''.
==Description==
When used in a marching or military band, the bars are sometimes mounted in a portable case and held vertically, sometimes in a lyre-shaped frame. However, sometimes the bars are held horizontally using a harness similar to a marching snare harness. In orchestral use, the bars are mounted horizontally. A pair of hard, unwrapped mallets, generally with heads made of plastic or metal, are used to strike the bars, although mallet heads can also be made of rubber (though using too-soft rubber can result in a dull sound). If laid out horizontally, a keyboard glockenspiel may be contrived by adding a keyboard to the instrument to facilitate playing chords. Another method of playing chords is to use four mallets, two per hand.
