LESSONS & MENTORING
DRUM LESSONS
(English-Italian-Spanish)
Teaching has always been a fundamental part of my professional career, both in Europe and United States, a true passion for providing the right education combined with over 25 years of live and studio experience.
I have been teaching drums for over 15 years, since 2013 I’m a drum faculty member at the MUSICIANS INSTITUTE HOLLYWOOD, dealing with drummers of every nationality and every level.
My goal in teaching has always been to share fundamental concepts of drumming applied to a real professional situation: I always like to discuss the scenarios and the musical aspects of every concept, showing the real applications in musical contexts, without falling into a mechanic-only way of learning the instrument.
Some of the topics offered in my lessons include the following:
- POSTURE AND BREATHING
- TECHNIQUE
- INDEPENDENCE
- READING AND SIGHT READING
- MULTI STYLISTIC STUDIES (Rock, Jazz, Pop, Latin, Funk, Jazz, Big Band, electronica and many more)
- PLAYING WITH A CLICK AND BACKING TRACKS
- DRUM SOLOING
- BUILDING PHRASES ON THE KIT
- WARM UP ROUTINES
- MULTI STYLES MINUS DRUM TRACKS
- RECORDING TECHNIQUES
and much more…
Private drum lessons are available in English, Spanish and Italian, they can be in-person at my drum studio located in North Hollywood, CA, or comfortably on-line from your home through Zoom lessons.
All lessons are provided with high quality Audio/Video setup and fast broadband connection.
