The workshop is set in a relaxed environment so confidence is very quickly built and everyone can experience a level of achievement. It is a really fun, practical learning experience with everyone getting the opportunity to have a go on a full size drum kit. The workshop leadersOur Drum Tutor Darren Lewis has been teaching peripatetically in school and privately for 5 years. Tuition can be on an individual, pair or group basis. Tuition involves working through grade material, theory, song based study and learning to play in bands / orchestras. His work in schools has also involved music lessons, assemblies, and band workshops. Darren attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford in 2001 and has played drums for various sessions in a Portsmouth based studio, Bob Ross Studios. These range from albums to EPs. Styles vary from rock, pop to jazz and musicals. For the last three years he has been gigging with professional rock band Replenish. Gigs include all over UK and Europe, including their own thirty-date headline UK tour. The immediate future will see Replenish in South Africa, the US, Norway and Finland. This workshopBeginners will learn basic skills in time-keeping, rhythm, tempo and playing. For those with some skill already they will learn some more advanced techniques. Get to learn about the drum kit and all equipment associated with it plus learn about drumming within different styles of music and how to do a flashy drum solo! All participants will have worksheets to take away with them. Using worksheets introduce the rhythms that participants will be learning. Worksheets are designed so as to work for those with no musical knowledge as well as those who are competent in music reading. At the end of the workshop people can take part in an interactive question and answer session and learners are provided with information on further training – drum colleges, music lessons, tuition books and magazines that are helpful.
