This year is the 32nd Annual Chicago Drum Show and will be held May 20 & 21, 2023 in the Prairie Events Center / Kane County Fairgrounds, St Charles, Illinois. Visit www.rebeats.com/drumshows_start_page.html to learn more.
This interview is part of a series of cymbal smiths that will be on a panel at the Chicago Drum Show. You’ll be learning more about the craft and get to know these makers who are forging (pun intended) the future of cymbal making.
The cymbal making history is amazing and exciting to learn how these craftsmen are continuing that history. Cymbal crafting dates back hundreds of years and we learn more how the Zildjian family plays a role in so much of today’s handcrafted cymbal market.
Each craftsman has a different story, different approach, like custom drums in the 1990’s – these craftsmen are at the forefront of a new revolution in cymbal making.
If you can attend the Chicago Drum Show I suggest you do it, Rob Cook has put together an amazing panel of 8 of the leaders in this new and growing field. The cymbal Smiths in this panel are Ray Byrne / Bryne Cymbals (byrnecymbals.com), Dave Collingwood / Collingwood Cymbals (collingwoodcymbals.com), Burke Daugherty / Burke’s Work’s Cymbals (bronzepie.com), Paul Francis / Royal Cymbals (royalcymbals.com), Mike Mongiello/ Mongiello Cymbals (mongiellocymbals.com), Nicky Moon / NickyMoon Custom Cymbals LLC (nickymoon.com), Matt Nolan / Matt Nolan Custom (mattnolancustomcymbals.com), Timothy Roberts / Reverie Drum Co. (reveriedrums.com).

On this episode I speak with Dave Collingwood of Collingwood Cymbals. Cymbal making for Dave is a passion and an obsession. He challenges himself to find new techniques and uncover new processes, and with more and more people showing an interest in the craft, he’s decided to pass on his knowledge by teaching others how to find their own way through the ever-branching pathways of knowledge.

On this episode I speak with Mike Mongiello of Mongiello Cymbals. Mike believes the most important element in any craft is the human one. That's why every single one of his instruments are made by hand from start to finish, in a single-artisan setting, ensuring the highest attention to detail and quality.
From carefully curated production models to custom instruments made from the ground up, Mike will help you find the sound you ae looking for. No cymbal will leave his workshop unless he'd be proud to play it on my own kit.
