Drumset & Percussion

The Drumset and Percussion Camp program is open to students 13-18 years old who have studied in school band and/or privately for at least one year. The diverse camps within the Goucher Summer Arts Institute provide unique and exciting inter-disciplinary drumset and percussion performance opportunities which may include Jazz Combo, Classical Percussion Ensemble, Drumline, Taoko Drumming, West African Drumming, Brazilian Percussion, Steel Pan, and Dance Accompaniment. Other classes and workshops consist of private lessons, rudimental workouts, rhythm theory and training, drum circle, electronic percussion, "A Rhythmic Murder Mystery" interactive concert, "Drumset Play-Along DVD" virtual band performance, and orchestral techniques. Professional performances and clinics inspire young musicians and reinforce skills and concepts. Campers wrap up their stay with a final concert in several of the performance groups.
