Description
This class is for drummers who already know how to keep a steady beat and want to grow their skills in group playing. Students will play as an ensemble and learn polyrhythms, where different rhythms happen at the same time, and how to stay in the groove while others play something different. You’ll practice call-and-response, leading and following, dynamics, tone, and hand technique while exploring traditional and modern rhythms from African, Caribbean, and Latin American drumming styles.
