It’s important because (among other things) cymbal crashes are the most dramatic acoustic sounds available to composers of music for band and orchestra. Good cymbal players are often unsung heroes. A well-timed and nicely performed cymbal crash can truly put the icing on the cake in a musical performance. Conversely, a missed crash or a crash with an inappropriate sound can absolutely ruin a concert. My favorite reasons for learning to play crash cymbals are because it’s so much fun to play them and every note you play is a solo!
