Percussionist Joey Schnopel visited the children at La Escuelita preschool Thursday morning, as part of their summer camp week long introduction to musical instruments. Joey demonstrated the different components of the drum set and discussed the many varieties of sounds that can be produced by these instruments. He also showed them that you don't even need an instrument to be a percussionist- hands clapping, thigh slapping and foot stomping can be your own percussion instrument.

The program was interactive, as Joey invited students to try playing various rhythms on his drum set, letting them choose which instrument they wanted to hit.

This program was very engaging for the students who ended up dancing to Joey rocking out on his drums!
