Ever been to the average music store for drum lessons? That small room with one small drumset? Not so with Walter White. There
are two complete sets and a few other of the percussion toys, see all those gongs? Wouldn't it be cool to play along with
your instructor? To hear it before you play it, to do drumset duets? Well your dreams can be met at White House Percussion
Studios.
Working on those etudes for Band, wouldn't it be nicer if you really had 4 timpani to play on! You lessons should be a total
percussion experience, from snare, to marching drum line to mallets and drum set!
Private Lessons

For private lessons contact us and set up a consultation for what your desires are. Whether a beginning student in elementary
school or an adult of any age wanting to learn what you never got around to when you were young, Walter has the skills to
address your dream. Snare drum to drumset, Marimba and Xylophone to 4 mallet Jazz Vibes, whatever your interest, Walter has
the experience and skill to nuture your interest to fruition.
For beginning percussionist, Walter offers a dual track plan for Piano and Percussion. Using the John Thompson and John
Schaum Books, a clear tried and true method plan is set in place. Reading for G and F clef as the Grand Staff are introduced
and reinforced for true musicianship to be nurtured while developing the muscle movement for a good drummer in this process.
And yes, I believe there is a place for GOOD Drummers! Sometimes and more often then not, a band needs someone to go Pa rum
papum, Pa rum Papum, Pa rumpa pa pa pa papum papum!
Walter stresses
a timely nurturing of the student as a whole well rounded person that is a musician that plays drums. Walter has the experience
and the stories to go along with it for your learning experience to be fun and rewarding.
Below you see I have a few books to draw material from. These were collected from a career across Europe and the US over 40
years. I still have original books I started with, I was meticulous with all of my books. Some show a little more wear then
others. Lots of Piano, Violin, Vocal, and Orchestral material
