Colts Partner With The Zildjian Company

The Colts are excited to welcome The Avedis Zildjian Company to our Red Team family. Our partnership with Zildjian will equip both the Colts and Colt Cadets percussion ensembles with the “gold standard” of marching and concert cymbals. The leader in cymbals dating back to 1623, Zildjian has been at the forefront of instrument-making for centuries.

“We are very excited about the new partnership with Zildjian,” said Colts Director Vicki MacFarlane. “With the legacy of our marching cymbal line — which is very important to our organization — I really feel that Zildjian offers us endless possibilities of expression that we are going to be able to put on the field in every production.”

Both the Colts and Zildjian share similar values when it comes to education, and when it comes to the member and staff experience.

“This is something that is going to help us really thrive in the activity,” said Colts Percussion Caption Head Josh Nelson. “For us to have Zildjian onboard is something I’m really looking forward to.”
