Drum Set for Accompanying Your Group
Faculty: Walt Hampton
Description: In this workshop, Walt Hampton will teach basic beats and techniques for accompanying and rehearsing your marimba, steel drum or *other* kids’ performing group on the drum set. We will also have an in-depth look at stick technique as it applies not just to the drum set, but to the marimba.
2 Hours
Time: 10:00am-12:00pm (Central Standard Time: Please be aware of your time zone in order to tune in on time)
Maximum Participants: 15
Participant Materials: Drum sticks. Basic drum set preferred: Bass drum(w/ pedal), snare drum (on stand), hi-hat. BUT…if you like, you can still learn with two surfaces to play on (one for your “hi-hat”, and one for your “snare”).
