About the event
Nothing is more infectious than the sound of a Steel Drum on a summer day. Canal Winchester has the oldest and most active Steel Band program in Central Ohio. We want you to join the fun! There's no previous music experience needed for this hour and a half workshop. We'll learn a few simple songs through imitation and simple notation. By the end we'll have a real Steel Band!
The session is led by Winchester Steel Co. director, Todd Phillips. Todd Phillips has multiple degrees in Music Education and has led the Steel Band program in Canal Winchester since its creation in 2000.
No music reading or previous music experience required*
