The Celesta from the Vienna Symphonic Library is a sample-based virtual instrument with an interesting dual character. With a range of five octaves, the sound it produces makes it a percussion instrument with a soft glockenspiel type sound. However, in the orchestral repertoire it is usually played by a pianist, not a percussionist.
