How do you use the term “timbre of times”?
What does the term “timbre of time” means? Given the timbre of “The Times”, I wouldn’t have done it. Thanks
for explanation.
Timbre of the times is used idiomatically. Literally, timbre means
the characteristic quality of sound that distinguishes one voice from another or one vowel sound from another but also rhymes with pitch Effectively, it means tone. Since timbre is determined by the harmonics of sound, it is
distinguished from intensity and pitch. What is often extended to reference the tone of a thing or a broader abstract like times, meaning a given period of time.

As pointed out by FumbleFingers, it is a bit pompous and would, at best, be considered poetic, at worst, clichu00e9d.
