Making Music with Steel Drums
September 18, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Six Wednesdays, beginning September 18 from 6-8pm
Fee: $125.00
Who doesn’t like to hit a drum? Playing the steel drum, also known as playing pan requires no musical experience. Producing a note in a pan is easy, and the reward is immediate! If you can tap your toe, you can play.
In this six-week class, students will learn to play by aural rote, just as it is taught traditionally in “panyards” across the Caribbean. The primary objective of the class is to make music and HAVE FUN!! With instruction in basic music notation, rhythm, and harmony. Once again get ready to kick off your shoes, feel the proverbial hot sand between your toes, and “jump up”!
This class meets in the Night Owl Recording Studio on the level level of the Education Wing.
Materials
Wear cool clothing and comfortable shoes and get ready to “jump up”!
