In percussion class, you will learn the fundamentals of rhythm through
playing a variety of drum/percussion instruments (bongos, congas, djembe,
drum kits, shakers, etc.) with experienced musical professionals.
You will also collaborate with members of the songwriting class to write,
rehearse, and perform original songs with individual songwriters and with
the entire class as part of The Jam Band.
In addition, you will participate in both a live recording and a studio
recording of your songwriting partner’s song and a live recording of the
group song during the We Jazz performance.
Prior musical experience is not required ,but students who do have
backgrounds in music/percussion are encouraged to enroll and invited to
bring any instruments they would like. Please see description of
songwriting class for further information.
