I have great praise for Chris’ Drum Cylinder Program. Chris has brought his program into my class for the past two years.
He immediately ingratiated himself to my second graders with his warmth and enthusiasm.
Every aspect of the program was infused with academic importance and relevance. The children were active participants in following Chris’s clear and structured directions.
The class was led through a variety of activities that quickly engaged them in the exploration of Rhythm. Through Chris’s gentle nature, I witnessed the captivation of interest and imagination of every child in my class. The end of the lesson transformed my classroom transformed into a “Drumming Village”.
The Drum Cylinder Program was one of the highlights of our school year and one that every child will remember.
I was so inspired I continued using Chris’s methodology to incorporate this form of music in my classroom for the rest of the year.

Drum Cylinder is Big Bang Music Enrichment!
Drum Cylinder is a participatory drumming program for general audiences of all ages.
Drum Cylinder is excellent for workshops and or Artist in Residency (see below.) Students participate and learn about drum building and playing technique,time keeping, rhythm and the nature of rhythm, steadiness, etc. Students will learn and understand about the rhythm of life & how progress has changed the nature of rhythm and how this is reflected in popular music. Rhythm is a life force. A heart beat. Drums are the ancient instrument and are part of every culture.
boys and girls, staff and adults will enjoy equally.
Also learning about the drum set, discovering how the size of the drum makes for high and low sounds not louder and softer. Students will be encouraged to discover which instrument on the drum set is the clock and why people love to join along with the beat by clapping, snapping, tapping and dancing.
As a motivational piece each class will decorate a drum cylinder that they get to keep and use in the drumming program.
On day three of the artist in residency the students will have a grand finale DRUM CYLINDER performance!
Chris is a long time enrichment provider and has presented over 3500 school performances to over
one million young people!
