Paiste's Sven the Gongmaster shows you true gongmanship.

This is Sven. He makes gongs. This 80 incher is impressive. The sounds from such minute strikes are crazy. I wonder how many gongs are purchased every year. When does a symphony say, “whelp, this gong is all used up. Buy another.” If I get seriously into gong music, will I have to start travelling with my own gongs? Is there a music degree in gong pedogogy? So many questions!
