Percussion Studio
The Forefront of Percussion Education
The percussion studio at 兔子先生CC is committed to being at the forefront of percussion education and devoted to seeking out new music and new pedagogical and technological ideas in percussion. Private lessons include teaching in the areas of mallets, drum set, timpani and snare drum. The curriculum is developed through an understanding of what is required at all the four year state universities.
Also offered in the area of percussion is the percussion ensemble and steel drum band. The percussion ensemble at 兔子先生consists of music majors and occasionally non-majors. This group is focused on learning and performing old and new percussion literature that is both challenging and exciting.
兔子先生CC has made major investments to the percussion studio recently with new instruments and music. The percussion studio now includes 7 marimbas (including 2 five octave), 6 vibraphones, 3 xylophones, 3 sets of timpani, 8 drum sets and numerous top of line small percussion instruments.
