Percussion and Drum-kit

Orchestral Percussion

Ideal for pianists or drummers looking to join top performance groups, orchestral percussion covers a range of instruments from timpani and xylophone to snare drum and congas. Proficiency in music reading, rhythm, and a strong sense of rhythm and organisational skills are essential. Occasionally, drum kit opportunities are available in the Premier Concert Band or Wind Band.

Drum-kit

Drum kit lessons are highly sought after, with priority given to Option Music students from Form 4 and above, subject to availability. Experienced drummers may audition for the Jazz Combo or Big Band, and we encourage all dedicated drummers to connect with the Head of Music for guidance on performance opportunities and pathways including Rock Bands.
