Lasse Funch Furberg
Jazz drummer educated at the Danish National Academy of Music.
Sparked by my interest in cymbals, I became a cymbalsmith and founded Funch Cymbals in 2017. I studied the Turkish cymbal making tradition in Istanbul. That is the foundation of my cymbal production today. My approach to cymbal making is a fusion of my background as a jazz drummer and the Turkish techniques. My goal is to create cymbals that are highly useable in acoustic jazz settings. As a musician and a craftsman, I am especially inspired by jazz history from the early '60s.
As a drummer I am familiar with the quest for a sound that’s just right for me. Years of playing has tuned my ear to know exactly what to listen out for. I pour this knowledge and intuition into each and every cymbal I make. The result is a highly musical instrument of supreme quality.
