Drumming is cool and tough. Tough because you can just play a rhythm and cool when you can manage a difficult rhythm on a drum set.
You learn the different parts, you learn to “read an instrument”: that is seeing and hearing how someone plays (for example which hand and foot combinations are used) and then playing it back.
You also learn things like reading notes, playing along to songs and playing separately with hands and feet. The goal is to let you trust your own ears and eyes and to be sure of what you hear and see.
Drum lessons are for adults and children. You don't have to buy a drum kit right away, and as for noise pollution: a drum kit can be dampened well.
Percussion is the rhythmic basis of many traditional South American music styles, but can also be the subtly spiced sauce in Pop music, Jazz, Blues, (Nu)Soul or Funk.
Common percussion instruments are congas, bongos, timbales, repinique, surdo, timba, caixa, pandeiro and tamborim.
But do you want to learn to play cajon, tambourine, ganza, agogo, caxixi or clave? Pepijn Zwaanswijk can help you with that too.
