Meinl is pleased to announce it is working with the internationally renowned music school, The Collective.

Meinl has equipped the Manhattan-based school with a formidable collection of cymbals and percussion in order to further the school's educational mission, giving students and instructors alike superior quality instruments to use in private one on one lessons and in class room settings.

The school's assistant director Tony Maggiolino had this to say: "The Collective is honored and proud to have Meinl Cymbals and Percussion in our classrooms. We feel that our students deserve the best and having Meinl associated with The Collective gives them the best!"

In 1952 Roland Meinl began producing the first Meinl cymbals in the basement of his house in Neustadt a. d. Aisch, Germany. We welcome you to join us in celebrating this event throughout the new year.
