As percussion students develop, bass drum playing is fundamental in their musical growth. Bass drum playing teaches tempo control, leadership, listening as an ensemble member and much more! Although expensive, by choosing to help support the purchase of a high-quality instrument, you are providing an instrument that will serve percussion students now and many years to come. Imagine the excitement you help to provide for a student who keeps the time thumping in a march or another who gives a thunderous ending to an overture. Your financial support is more than an instrument, it's music heard loud and clear!
