	Masley's Discography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Cymbalom, flutes, synthesizer and sampled percussion in a more elaborately produced setting.
		Astonishingly broad receiving antennae for improvisational inspiration: cymbalom, cello, and a variety of flutes and panpipes.
		Primarily solo cymbalom, with a short sonic coffee break on Pan-Timbre-Reen and panpipes, this work alternates between catchy arrangements in a modal vein and conscious attempts to set aside familiar harmonic language.

	Cymbalom - Antwoorden.org
		Een cymbalom (ook: cymbaal, niet te verwarren met het cymbaal dat "bekken" betekent) is een snaarinstrument dat behoort tot de plankciters.
		Evenals de grote variant, de concertcymbalom, is de cymbalom een soortgenoot van de piano.
		Het voornaamste verschil is dat bij de piano een mechaniek is ingebouwd om de snaren aan te slaan, terwijl bij de cymbalom de bespeler (cymbalist) dat zelf doet.

	Cymbalom, hammer dulcimer, Michael Masley, artist general, unique plaucked bowed musical instrument
		The cymbalom is a Hungarian hammer dulcimer, which is traditionally played with two wooden "hammers" which resemble curved chopsticks.
		Michael Masley plays the Cymbalom with his own invention, a system of eight "bowhammers" and thumbpicks, allowing him to pluck, bow, or strike the strings in any combination, and resulting in a sound wholly his own.
		A small cymbalom was also later produced in Ukraine during the 1950's that came with attachable legs and dampers but could be carried more easily than a concert instrument.

	Remembering Joseph Moskowitz
		Famous for his cymbalom playing, he was born in Romania in 1879.
		The photos of him with the cymbalom are when he was performing at Michel's restaurant in Washington DC in the later years of his life (Michel is the violin player in the photos).
		Also, I am told that there was a cymbalom player that succeeded Uncle Joe at Michel's by the name of Bela Szalai.

	Cymbalom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		De cymbalom is een plankciter, afkomstig uit Hongarije.

	:: cafe-music.com : giani lincan-ionica minune gypsy ensemble
		Turned out to be my first exposure to the 'large cymbalom', and was played by Romanian virtuoso Giani Lincan.
		If you are seated on the same level as the large cymbalom, affording you a good view, it is a particularly exciting instrument to watch being played - the player's hands and mallets 'ablaze', as it were.
		And of course, the constant improvisational interplay between the cymbalom and the accordion.

	Fearless READER FeatureLine #5: "Beethoven on the Street"
		Over the years Masley has developed the capacity to combine any two of the pluck, bow, or string attacks on the taut wires of the cymbalom, and says he may be “working the rest of my life” on getting all three going in sync.
		Playing cymbalom, Lakota flute, and water pipes for a couple of movie minutes, Masley made a few bucks and saw his musical contribution excerpted for use on CBS’ broadcast of the 1994 Winter Olympics, on NBC’s “Entertainment Tonight,” and in an HBO special.
		But for now, the cymbalom’s unique bells-and-shadows sound can still be heard ringing out over the sidewalks and plazas of the San Francisco Bay area.

	Details for Blast/Sophisticated Face at CDconnection.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		This instrumentation, particularly the strings and the Eastern European-flavored cymbalom (related to the hammer dulcimer), give Blast a sound that is much closer to a contemporary chamber ensemble than avant rock band.
		The ensemble moves into extended-form, episodic territory with the guitarist's 'Visceral Ooze.' This piece begins slowly and mysteriously with gradually escalating tension, pitting slowly evolving horn and reed lines against bumps and bursts from the rhythm section.
		Violin and cymbalom are added to the mix, and the gathering energy breaks through into an effervescent groove fueled by percolating marimba and a pumping guitar and bass riff.

	Cloud Chamber: Playing on the moment's edge
		Known as Cloud Chamber, the group is comprised of guitarist Barry Cleveland, bassist Michael Manring, bowhammer cymbalom (a Hungarian hammer dulcimer) player Michael Masley, cellist Dan Reiter and percussionist Joe Venegoni.
		Manring is acknowledged by many as one of the most innovative players to ever pick up an electric bass—something his four solo recordings and collaborations with Michael Hedges, Alex Skolnick and Henry Kaiser attest to.
		Masley and his one-of-a-kind shimmering, spectral cymbalom sound graces several solo releases, as well as famed albums by Ry Cooder and Garbage.

	Klezmer at AllExperts
		Although it has no form, it is not just random sounds in a Jewish mode--the musician works with very particular references to Jewish prayer and East European laments.
		Typically it is performed on violin (Yiddish "fidl"), cymbalom (Yiddish "tsimbl") or clarinet, though has been done on everything from banjoes to xylophones.
		Since klezmorim often had to perform for long events, it was difficult to keep the instruments in tune, especially the many-stringed cymbalom.

		Fuhler’s love of old, distinctive-sounding keyboards fits his richly textured ensemble, which includes Nora Mulder on cymbalom, the Ex’s Andy Moor on guitar, Anne La Barge on flute, Tony Buck and Michael Vatcher on percussion, Ab Baars and Tobias Delius on reeds, and Wilbert de Joode on double bass.
		“Zand I” chugs along happily on square wheeled riffs, keyboard, bass, and cymbalom unison, while the tenors roar.
		A cymbalom storm sparks de Joode and a brief fire sweeps the ensemble.

	Barry Cleveland: Fiery forays
		He played a bowhammer cymbalom solo on “Tongue of Fire” when the album was originally recorded, and on “Dark Energy,” towards the end.
		He also played three of his original instruments—Reed Slide, Lakota Slide and Phenix—on “Obsidian Night.” Masley’s parts were entirely improvised, and he nailed most of them on the first take, which is particularly impressive when you consider that he was recorded in a shower stall to get a natural reverb effect.
		We recorded additional guitar and cymbalom tracks, and later Bob Stohl and Kat Epple added several types of flutes, Lyricon and a variety of bells, cymbals and other light percussion.

	Celtic Zen - Levi Chen - Music Videos
		Celtic Zen is the self-titled album by Levi Chen (guitar and gu zheng), harpist Lisa Franco, and Michael Masley on cymbalom (a chromatic hammered dulcimer played with special strikers attached to each finger).
		Masley's bowhammered cymbalom brings sparkling dimensions to "Eros, a Rose: Venus," while harpist Lisa Franco centers the piece with a steady cadence and the warmth of her notes.
		Brent Lewis' unique melodic percussion patterns on the 22-note Ikuma drum set creates a hypnotic sequence on "Baskali." If you listen to this album as a sonic bath, the swirling tapestries of sound can be very stimulating and relaxing.

		Hence musicians took up the violin, tsimbl (or cymbalom), and other string instruments.
		The first musician to bring klezmer to European concert audiences, Josef Gusikov, played a type of xylophone of his own invention, which he called a 'wood and straw instrument', laid out like a cymbalom, and attracted comments from Felix Mendelssohn (highly favourable) and Liszt (condemnatory).
		When a cymbalom sound is called for, a piano is played with sustain.

	Vera Bila & Kale
		From a tender age until she was 25 she sang with her father who was a violinist and the leader of a cymbalom band.
		In the mid eighties, the top of Czech folk bands, Nerez, saw VERA perform with KALE at a folk festival and were overwhelmed with their talent and began inviting them to guest at concerts.From there things developed into eventually landing a recording contract with the major multinational label BMG.
		Unlike the commercialized, heavily spanish influenced songs recorded by acts such as the Gypsy Kings, the contents of "ROM-POP" are songs written and recorded for gypsy ears that an outsider can now have the chance to listen to.

		But Stoican had caught a notorious spy in the 1960s and been promised an opportunity to make an album at the state-run studios, and in about 1977 he returned to Bucharest to call in his chips.
		With the help of some other well-known musicians and the cultural authorities, he was able to enlist some of the top players in the country, including trumpeter Costel Vasilescu and Toni Iordache on cymbalom, the Balkan hammer dulcimer, in addition to a full band of violins, clarinets, accordion and bass viol.
		On a typical track, the melody will first be played on cymbalom, or occasionally clarinet or accordion, with Stoican taking over on his violin by the second verse.

		The question is whether to rush out to the hills to talk with someone who is doing some instrumental work for Josh, or to listen to the new CD that Josh's new band, Budowitz, is about to release.
		Josh is the hottest, or one of the hottest, Jewish cymbalom players in the world, so just hanging out is a treat.

	Rock Paper Scissors - Earth Wheel Sky Band, Waltz Rromano (Asphalt Tango) - CD Review
		Guitarist, vocalist, composer, activist and Boris Kovac sideman Olah Vince is joined by a standup bassist, violinist, cymbalom player and percussionist to create music so jauntily rousing that the slower moments (like the sweet "Music Rroman") make you marvel at the group's versatility.
		The kicker is that even at breakneck tempos, the pure beauty of the music shines through as the feel moves easily from ominous to evocative to lamenting to party-hearty.
		Hammered cymbalom strings form the backbone of melodic mood, creating a rich gumbo alongside the bass and galloping dumbek drum with guitar, violin and recurring vocal exhortations circling the action.

	Astoria Center of Israel: Art Bailey's Orkestra Popilar
		The repertoire is a mix of early 20th century Jewish fiddle pieces, original compositions, improvisation, and features material originally recorded by Romanian-born cymbalom master and Lower East Side restauranteur, Joseph Moskowitz.
		One aim of the quintet is to explore the repertoire and style of Joseph Moskowitz, the Romanian cymbalom master who settled in New York City around 1913 and was owner and operator of the Moskowitz Wine Cellar on Rivington Street in lower Manhattan, and a restaurant on Second Avenue.
		The wine cellar was a popular gathering spot for Romanian Jews, who were certainly drawn in by Moskowitz’s cymbolm playing, and the restaurant was patronized by some of the celebrities of the day including H.L. Mencken, Theodore Dreiser and Joseph Pulitzer.

	CD Baby: ART BAILEY'S ORKESTRA POPILAR: Branch from the Tree
		The sound of the ensemble owes more to the urgent, fiery sound of Romanian string and cymbalom ensembles than to Jewish-American wedding bands of the 40s and 50s, and draws from the cross-pollinated Romanian/Jewish repertoire, as well as Bailey’s own original compositions.
		With the absence of the American dance band drum set and clarinet, the group takes klezmer music out of the realm of the archetypical 1950s klezmer sound most listeners are familiar with, and puts it in a setting that is reminiscent of an even earlier time in the recorded history of Jewish music.
		The idea to form the group initially was inspired by the recordings of Joseph Moskowitz, the Romanian cymbalom master who settled in New York City around 1913 and was owner and operator of the Moskowitz Wine Cellar on Rivington Street in lower Manhattan.
