History of Cimbalom
Cimbalom is a percussion instrument, and it is said that the origin of percussion instruments was already in Assyria around 3000 BC. It is said that this Assyrian instrument spread to Europe after AD. In Europe, this percussion instrument evolved in its own way, and around the Middle Ages, original instruments began to appear in various places. However, each percussion instrument at that time had different tuning methods, and the system was completely different. Around the 18th century, the prototype of the current cimbalom was developed by the German virtuoso, and was played in the royal court. This is called “Pantaleon”, and it came to be used in Hungary as a symbolic instrument for Hungarian independence in 1848, and continues to this day. Modern orchestras have also used this instrument. The instrument gained considerable recognition when it was exhibited at the 1878 Paris Universal Exposition. In the 1900s, musical instrument makers were born to handle this instrument.
