ABSTRACT:
A combination of a portable high-hat cymbal device and a drum including a drum cylinder-terminated at least on one end by a circular rim and having a drum head stretched thereover to create a drum noise when struck by a drum stick operated by a drummer, first and second cymbals held in opposed formation near the rim of the drum and within reach of the drumsticks held in the hands of the drummer, the cymbals centrally supported on a vertical spindle attached to the drum, with the first cymbal in fixed location above the second cymbal, an abutment, supporting the second cymbal in biased contact with the first cymbal, and slidingly received on the vertical spindle, and pivotal arm, spaced apart from the spindle and operable by motion of the drummer's arm, to move the second cymbal downward on the spindle, against the bias pressure, so that, upon release by the drummer of the first means, the bias pressure moves the second cymbal abruptly upward to crash against the first cymbal to make the appropriate high-hat sound.
