  Cymbalum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The cymbalum, cymbalom, cimbalom (most common spelling), ţambal, tsymbaly, tsimbl or santouri is a musical instrument found mainly in the music of Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Greece and Ukraine.
The small cymbalum is usually carried by the musician, using a strap around the player's neck and leaning one edge of the instrument against the player's waist.
A small cymbalum was also later produced in Ukraine during the 1950's that came with attachable legs and dampers but could be carried more easily than a concert instrument.

His legacy today relies almost entirely on the Cymbalum Mundi, four cryptic dialogues concerning the religious controversies of the period that earned him Calvin’s strong condemnation.
Given the uncertainty of Des Périers’s authorship in the case of both the Cymbalum Mundi and the Nouvelles récréations, the first published anonymously, the second posthumously, scholars have repeatedly compared the two works, hoping to prove or disprove their common source, but have inevitably selected one or the other work for their most probing criticism.
