PERCUSSION CLINICS AND WORKSHOPS

Percussion Clinics and Workshops for Educators

Educators will gain valuable insights and confidence participating in these hands-on percussion clinics and workshops. Stewart discusses and demonstrates percussion techniques, then circulates and coaches participants as they try them out for themselves.

All topics listed under Percussion Clinics and Workshops for Students may be addressed in an Educators’ Workshop, redesigned with a focus on teaching the techniques in the classroom.

Further topics for Educators may include:

• Evaluating Percussion Performance
• Organizing Your Percussion Section

Larger groups may be more suited to a lecture-demonstration and discussion. In this format, Stewart discusses and demonstrates any or all of the topics listed above, as well as his own philosophy of teaching percussion in a junior high or high school setting.

The workshops wrap up with a question and answer session.
