Theater Acting with Christopher S.

-Let's get this quote corrected- Rule that I learned and live by... TO BE EARLY IS TO BE ON TIME. TO BE ON TIME IS TO BE LATE. TO BE LATE IS TO BE ____. ( I was taught with the word DEAD but I will use IN TROUBLE) then sentenced to RUNNING LAPS or MANY MANY PUSH UPS. ...but that is marching band or drum corp. Too intense for some. I have been playing percussion for over 24 years. Schooled in the performance art of symphonic percussion, marching/drum corp percussion & world percussion. I am currently the percussion tech at Smithson Valley High School. Also, I have been performing live on stage and studio work on drum set for the past 17 years. Toured across the states recorded many c.d.'s and have even had songs on movie soundtracks. Working with 2 reggae bands out of Austin, Tx. The knowledge I have, about the many voices each percussion instrument has, benefits my students of the percussive arts. It is very important that percussionist are everywhere loving the UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE of MUSIC. Let's work together to achieve your GOALS and BEYOND. *** Lesson Details *** Students will learn READING & WRITING of MUSIC. Very Important and easy to learn. Stick control & Technique.
