Legendary jazz drummer
Carl Allen worked with DGS Jazz students this morning, sharing a wealth of jazz knowledge in an hour clinic. The mentor/apprentice relationship has always been at the heart of jazz learning, and today the students gained a glimpse into the musical knowledge of one of the greatest living jazz drummers. Musical leadership and responsibility, listening to each other and to the music, and unification of musical elements were a few of the topics covered during the master class. Mr. Allen's appearance today was made possible, in part by the Mustang Band Boosters and Mr. Allen's sponsors, including Zildjian Cymbals, Remo Percussion, Drum World Percussion, Latin Percussion, and Vic Firth Percussion.
