SABIAN INTRODUCES NEW BEST-IN-CLASS XSR SERIES!SABIAN has just announced the launch of a brand new cymbal series: XSR. Replacing Xs20, XSR will deliver unprecedented sound and performance at a price designed to fit your cymbal budget. No other series even comes close!

“We work hard to keep pushing forward the art of cymbal-making,” comments SABIAN Master Product Specialist Mark Love. “The technology we have learned from making professional series cymbals eventually trickles down to more budget-minded series. For XSR, we use many of the same processes from Evolution and X-Plosion cymbals, and we’re thrilled with the result.”

XSR cymbals are hammered and feature enhanced profiles. Bells have been reshaped and redesigned to accelerate the overall sound of the cymbal. The result? Sound and performance well beyond what you would expect from a budget series. In fact, you can put XSR on any kit, on any stage, and not sound out of place.

SABIAN EDUCATION NETWORK CELEBRATES FIRST YEAR

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEThe SABIAN Education Network celebrates its one-year launch anniversary in March 2016, marking a successful first year for this new educational outreach initiative. With its mission to assist drum teachers in the professional, educational, and business aspects of their careers, SEN has grown quickly in its first year and received glowing reviews from its members.

Under the direction of SABIAN Education Consultant Joe Bergamini, SEN staged three live events for drum teachers in 2015. Presented with the theme of “Develop, Manage, and Grow Your Business,” these events took place in New York City; Nashville, TN; and San Antonio; TX. Each event consistent of a panel of experts that engaged in discussion with the attendees; panelists included world-renowned artist/educators such as Dom Famularo, Jojo Mayer, Rod Morgenstein, Rich Redmond, Mark Guiliana, and others. SEN also presented four webinars featuring educators such as Jeremy Hummel and Daniel Glass, which were attended by hundreds of drum teachers online.

One of the main elements of SEN is its website, which contains a private forum for drum teachers, a database of teacher members, and a resource library of articles and videos (most contributed by members), all aimed specifically at drum educators. Prospective members apply at www.sabian.com/joinsen, and once admitted to the program, can immediately access all of the advantages of membership.

“I am thrilled with the response to SEN in 2015,” said SEN director Joe Bergamini, “and I look forward to bringing the advantages of the program to many more drum teachers in 2016 and beyond. It’s inspiring to see the synergy of these great educators assisting each other towards greater success.”
