What is a "keyboard glockenspiel"?

A keyboard glockenspiel is a percussion instrument with metal bars arranged in a keyboard-like layout, similar to a piano. Each metal bar is tuned to a specific pitch and is struck with mallets to produce a bright, clear, bell-like sound. The bars are mounted on a frame with resonators underneath to enhance the sound. This instrument is used in orchestras, concert bands, and various musical settings to add melodic and harmonic elements. Its distinctive, sparkling tones make it a popular choice for adding texture and brightness to musical compositions.
