There is plenty of opportunity for individual creativity and spontaneity enthusiastically provided by master instructor, Luis Garay. He helps his students appreciate the passion and inspiration of the drum and experience the joy of rhythm and the fun of creating music through Afro-Latin Rock, Jazz, and African World percussion.

The seminar is open to students from grades 4 through 6 who play any percussion instrument. The seminar is looking for enthusiastic, young drummers and percussion players who have talent and potential, both those who are preparing for a career as professional musicians as well as those students who love to play drums or percussion instruments for fun and enrichment. Participants will improve their percussion skills through this fun and exciting week of percussion. In this exhilarating class, everyone will get to play in the groove, progressing from basics to more sophisticated rhythms, and finally to ensemble literature as they learn to converse in the "universal language" of music.
