Enrolling Now: Fall Semester Begins September 8
Want to try playing a steel drum? Visit us during MusicFest on Sunday, September 7, 2-4 PM and come to Studio 16 (Lower Level) where we’ll have several drums to try!
This new ensemble is a collaboration between Winchester Community Music School and Winchester Recreation Department. No musical experience is required!
We’ll learn traditional Caribbean and popular songs while also learning about the music and history of the island of Trinidad, the birthplace of the steel drum (also known as steel pan). Everyone will get to try the different types of steel drums in the ensemble.
Our ensemble will perform at local community spring and summer events such as Music MAYnia, Winchester Town Day, and Porchfest.
We have enough drums at WinRec for 6 students to use, plus some of our current students have purchased their own drums. Enrollment is limited to 6 participants unless you bring your own drum to class.
Participants also have the option of practice together at WinRec on Monday nights, 6:00-7:00 PM, based on demand and availability.
