- This is the story of how the world sounds different because somebody-in fact, almost everybody-told Miles O’Malley that it couldn’t.
Gifted with an inventor’s curiosity and an entrepreneur’s spirit, Miles ventured as a teenager into the world of instrument making with a healthy irreverence for tradition. And at every turn, he found himself discouraged by an industry utterly committed to the dubious merits of sticking to the ways things are usually done.
But the great ones have never been satisfied with the way things are. So, Miles O’Malley set out to turn his imagination into a wildly unexpected way of blending authenticity and ingenuity.
In an old Chicago manufacturing plant that serves as a symbol of what’s possible, he’s designed an extraordinary space that’s equal parts instrument-making workshop, ideas laboratory, and educational TH-cam studio.
And at the nexus of all three, Miles O’Malley is forging something so special that history might just remember it forever-and forget those who thought the status quo was good enough.

Inspiring and motivating to see such passion for and commitment to a highly-valued craft and art!
Bravo to Miles, and to M&A for making this!
Way way WAY too modest, dude! You awesome!
It's very inspiring to see someone given a gift from above and using it. Thank you
You’re doing a great service in making the whole horn, so good to see someone find and follow their passion.
what a wonderful video!❤
So glad to see the bean bending matrix in this!
You are impressive. I'm an instrument maker myself and you have my respect. I wish you much success.
Miles, I just love your work and hopefully I can pay a visit to your workshop sometimes (BTW I live in Australia) 👍👍👍
this seems like the sort of thing my band teacher would show me, actually he might stumble upon this some day and show me lol. It's very cool
Loved this video, and I love Miles!
very nice video and story. one piece of advice....you/he probably should make clear his company's name at least once and probably multiple times (unless i missed it somehow)
Thanks for the feedback. This short film was meant to just be about him and his passion. His company does have a logo in the credits. omalleyhorns.com
The beans
Here's my "very cool video" comment. So, ya, very cool & congratulations!
Miles, do you make large bore euphonium?
How often are you confused with the Georgia O’Malley? Got a horn from them, cheap but what I needed, now I find your just 100 miles (no pun intended) down the road.
😀
Yo Miles, wanna make some mac n cheese?
