WHY DOES THIS CHANNEL EXIST?
I've taught a Percussion Methods course several times at different schools and been frustrated at the futility of trying to cover so many instruments and techniques in a single semester. So, these videos are a way of digitizing those course materials without time limitations.

WHO ARE THESE VIDEOS FOR?
These videos are designed to present solid techniques and foundational sound production for music educators and their students. The equipment and information is meant to be realistic and attainable for public school music programs.
