I've been playing professionally on Zildjian Cymbals for 50 years. They've been heard with the big bands of Woody Herman, Stan Kenton, Clark Terry and Bill Watrous, and in small groups with Joe Henderson, Bill Evans, David Liebman, Bobby Shew and Eddie Gomez. And they were heard by the hundreds of students I taught at the University of North Texas.
