Jon Arkin Online Class: The Musical Drummer

Wednesdays 6 – 7:30pm
7/8 – 8/12 (6 weeks)

This class will focus on developing the drummer’s sense of musicality – the essential (and often lacking) element of playing which can take your drumming beyond patterns and exercises and bring it to life. Students will explore a wide variety of concepts, including time feel, meaningful interaction, melodic soloing, dynamic balance, and finding one’s individual sound. Through listening, transcribing, playing & discussion, the class will bring awareness to that most fundamental component of music: The joy of creation!
