Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Tim - bah - lees, with the accent on the "bah," is the correct pronunciation. I've been playing and teaching music for years (degrees in music education for both piano and band) and I've never heard it pronounced any other way, regardless of whether it is alone or affixed to a drumset. |
