Come explore rhythm and percussion from around the world! Through music, movement, fun, and games we'll practice and grow our skills in rhythmic patterns, introductory elements of musical notation, and musical expression.

In this session we will also focus on performing, learning an ensemble piece, improvising, writing, practicing and more! The program will conclude with a short showcase for family and friends to see what we've been up to all year!

While we recommend students have already taken the Fall and or Winter sessions of Little Drummers, this class is open to any student Pre-K to K that is craving some more music in their lives!

This section of the class prepares students to move into Instrument Playground classes at the HCA where students are exposed to all of the instrument families. This class also prepares students to enter the world of private lessons in any instrument with a huge leg up from their peers.
