Over the years I have taught many students and bands at different levels and in different formats. Here’s a short description of how I do 1on1 tuition.
The best option for you, to personally improve your drumming, is to get your own teacher/mentor. My experience is that 1on1 tuition can be very effective, yet it also demands a high degree of self-disciplin. Here’s what you get from lessons with me:
- Lessons in person or through Skype.
- Focus on your basic grip technique and stick control.
- Focus on the dynamic range in your playing.
- Focus on your attention to detail in the music, and your ability to express music and play to the tune.
- Focus on specifics in your playing that you should improve and guidance to how to get there, and tips to methods that leads to better and more effecient practice at home.
- Tuition from an experienced certified music teacher.
The lessons are of 40 minutes each, in 🇬🇧English, 🇩🇰Danish, or partly 🇩🇪German 🥁🎶
When you’re having me writing drum scores for you or your group, this is what you get:
- A customized drum score for your level based on an interview or email correspondence.
- PDF drum score for snares. Chips included in score if requested.
- Option of having scores made for tenors and bass as well.
- Detailed instructions of dynamics and what to look out for when playing the score.
- MP3 recording of the score in two different tempos of your choice.
- One year of exclusive usage, before I share the score.
You’re always welcome to get in touch and ask me wether I’ve got a score in my archive, that you’re looking for, or to ask for bass&tenor scores for drum scores already shared on this page.
Group tuition wether in band, drum corp or with other drummers can be very inspirational and giving. Getting the feel of developing together is thrilling. Here’s what you get from a group session with me:
- Customized rudiments & exercises for the group that matches the level you are at and challenges you in order to reach the next level.
- The option of getting help to adjust fixed scores to, for example, fit the level you need or further enhance the expression of the tune.
- A closer focus on every drummer in the corp and suggestions on how to improve individually.
- Instructions on how to make rehersals more efficient and beneficial for everyone involved.
- Tuition from an experienced certified music teacher.
Testimonials
Super nodesæt du har sat på papir. Sjovt at spille og ligger super i forhold til melodierne. Det kan du godt være lidt stolt af. Helge Petersen, Danmark 🇩🇰
Anders verfügt über ein herausragendes musikalisches Verständnis und blickt auf umfassende Erfahrungen im Band Ensemble in Grad 1 zurück. Seine verfassten Stücke bilden ein ausgezeichnetes Gleichgewicht zwischen technischer Herausforderung und lebhaftem Ausdruck in einer einzigartigen Weise. Ihn beim Spielen und Unterrichten zu sehen hinterlässt einen bleibenden Eindruck, weil er es hervorragend versteht kleinste Feinheiten hervorzuheben und einen starken Auftritt zu erarbeiten. Oliver Bernhardt, Deutschland 🇩🇪
Anders shows an outstanding musical comprehension and can resort to extensive experience in band playing in grade 1. His compositions create an excellent and unique balance of technical challenge and lively expression at the same time. Seeing him perform and teach will leave a big impression as he knows exactly how to work out finest details and develop a strong performance. Oliver Bernhardt, Germany 🇩🇪
Anders is the one who has basically taught me everything about snare drumming (although I have also had the great opportunity to meet some of the best in the world – literally!). He is very dedicated to teaching and is a great inspiration. The scores that he composes are among the finest and most musical I’ve come across so far. Albert Janik, Denmark 🇩🇰
I think that Anders is the best drum teacher I had. Lessons work very good and they’re not hard! Milosz Gosiewski, Norway 🇳🇴
Anders er en super god underviser, og har en super god personlighed! Han elsker at fyrre den af på tromme, og vise hvad han kan. Når han underviser er han altid super tålmodig, og han tror altid på en! Alt i alt er han en super flink person, både i bandet og i privaten. Thumbs up, and keep the head high. Martin Andersen, Danmark 🇩🇰
