Dave Weckl does drum master class for teachers and students

Dave Weckl has drummed with such greats as Simon & Garfunkel, Chick Corea, George Benson, Peabo Bryson, Diana Ross, and Robert Plant is about to tour the UK with his drum clinic. Yamaha Drums UK will host a run of exclusive clinics and performances with the drumming legend this November.

As part of the clinics, Weckl offer attendees some unique insights into his approach to drumming. He will also be signing autographs and answering questions. Furthermore, Weckl will be running intimate One-Day Intensive master classes, which are limited to just 12 attendees. Open to players of all ages and playing abilities, these sessions will offer the benefits of a small-group learning environment, as he will be spending more individual time with each player. Attendees must register and pay in advance of these classes by visiting: www.daveweckl.com

“I am really looking forward to the UK/Ireland leg of this tour,” said Weckl. “The response is always amazing, and the drummers are passionate about sharing music and drumming ideas.”
