Additional Information

Weekly drumming sessions are held Tuesday nights during the Spring semester from 6pm to 7pm at the MSU band hall. Everyone is welcome (current, prospective, and high school players) and is invited to play whatever instrument they want. We will do some "chopping out" as well as reading through various things. Feel free to bring any music that you might like to play through. We can also make time to read through student compositions or do arranging assignments, if people are interested.
