Toni Iordache (1942-1987) was one of the most famous cimbalom players. He began learning the instrument from his father when he was four. Later he toured many countries in Europe and throughout the world as a member of the 'Ciocârlia' folk music ensemble (Ciocârlia means lark in Romanian and is also the name of a famous virtuoso piece where the violinist imitates the call of the lark and other birds). Toni Iordache also worked with the well-known pan flute (Romanian: nai) player Gheorghe Zamfir
