Drumkit
A Drumkit is a collection or group of drums, cymbals and other percussion instruments, which are set up on stands to be played by a single player. The player has to use both hands and feet. Feet are usually used to operate pedals that control the high cymbal and the bass drum/s.
A Drumkit typically consists of a snare drum, two or more tom-toms, bass drum, ride or crash cymbals and the hi-hat cymbal. All of these are classified as non-pitched percussion. The drumkit belongs to the standard rhythm section and is used in many types of popular music styles like rock, pop, blues and jazz. At Trinity Music Academy we teach our students the art of mastering the skill to play the Drumkit through a systematic step-by-step syllabus designed by the Academy.
We maintain a warm, cordial, conducive, pleasing and exciting learning environment so that our students have a wonderful, rich, progressive, constructive and memorable experience of learning to make music.
Through periodic internal assessment and tests we train our students to prepare different scales, arpeggios, broken chords, sight-reading, improvising and aural tests. We also impart a broad knowledge of Western music, music composers and their works, structure, style and period. Subsequently the students are prepared for the world renowned and globally accredited Certificate Grade examinations conducted by Trinity College, London, UK. These examinations are available from Entry (Initial) grade up to Grade 8 for practical (Classical & Jazz/ Rock and Pop) as well as Music Theory. .
