Meinl Cymbals Planetary Tuned Tuning Fork Venus
Product information "Meinl Cymbals Planetary Tuned Tuning Fork Venus"
Venus symbolises femininity, beauty, love and eroticism and is the brightest star in the sky after the sun and moon. We only get to see it in the morning and in the evening, which is why Venus is also called the morning and evening star. Together with our Earth, Venus orbits the sun in a kind of dance. If we were to trace this orbit, starting from the five points closest to the Earth, after 8 years we would get the geocentric image of a five-petalled figure known as the Venus pentagram or Venus flower.
The sound of the Venus frequency gives warmth, harmony and positive energy, promotes the pleasure of the senses and love. Paracelsius once said that music was given to us by Venus. In the second movement of Gustav Holst's orchestral suite "The Planets", she is described as the "bringer of peace".
The MEINL planetary tuning forks are manufactured in Germany. Using Hans Cousto's calculation (The Cosmic Octave), each tuning fork is tuned exactly to the frequency of the sun, moon and planets. Each tuning fork is tuned to reproduce the corresponding frequency of the celestial body. These tuning forks have been specially developed for therapeutic applications.

The company Meinl was founded in 1951 by Roland Meinl as a one-man operation producing cymbals in a cellar workshop. Now in its third generation and family-run, Roland Meinl Musikinstrumente has become one of the biggest names in the production of cymbals, percussion instruments and sound therapy instruments, with locations in Gutenstetten and Nashville, TN.
Meinl Cymbals are manufactured at two locations. One production site is at the company headquarters in Gutenstetten in Franconia. This site has been specialised in high-precision automated production and hammering and has been continuously modernised since the new build in 2003. The series produced exclusively in Germany include, among others, HCS, Classics Custom, Classics Custom Dark, Classics Custom Dual as well as Pure Alloy and Pure Alloy Custom.
With the introduction of the traditionally hand-hammered cymbals of the Byzance Series in 2000, Meinl entered a centuries-old tradition of cymbal manufacturing in the home of cymbal craftsmanship – Turkey. Since the construction of the Turkish production facility in Samsun in 2019, production has taken place in a highly modern manufactory. After manufacture there, the cymbals are finished in the German factory and each one is strictly inspected for look and sound.
The cymbal range comprises seven main series that, based on six different alloys, cover a particularly broad sonic spectrum. These include: Byzance, Pure Alloy, Classic Custom, HCS, Symphonic/Marching, Generarion X and Artist Concept Models.
The range is complemented by Drum Gear – accessories for the drum kit – from drum rugs through practice pads and stick bags to cymbal cleaners and drum keys. Meinl Cymbals' endorsers include some of the most successful and well-known drummers of our time, among them: Benny Greb, Robert "Sput" Searight, Matt Garstka, Anika Nilles, Mike Johnston, Jost Nickel, Chris Coleman, Luke Holland, Brann Dailor and Wolfgang Haffner.
To experience the complete Meinl Cymbals range with all your senses, we warmly recommend a visit to our Walldorf branch. On site we host the first Meinl Flagship Store in Europe, where you'll find the entire Meinl Cymbals portfolio and even some special models that you can of course play and try out.
