OLLI0024 - OLLI Steel Drum Band - INTERMEDIATE

Course Description

For those who have grasped the basics, this band will refine the basics and techniques on the steel pans. We will work on slightly more difficult music and dive deeper into the culture of Trinidad and the steel band art form.  Recommendations for enrollment: prerequisite of the beginner level is required unless instructor permission is granted through invitation or a short audition; reading music is helpful but not essential; able to stand for 60-75 minutes; reasonable mobility in fingers, wrists, and arms; willingness to practice before class recommended if needed. Limited to 14 participants.

Your success and enjoyment in the band, as well as the band’s success is dependent on regular attendance. Everyone in the band plays an important role. Please make every effort to attend each class.  If you foresee missing more than 2 classes, the instructor suggest that you not enroll.
