Drums

Welcome to Malmö Musikskola and our inspiring drum course - your chance to explore the rhythmic and dynamic world of drums!

Drums, with their powerful and energetic sound, are at the heart of many musical styles and a central part of every band. With us, you will have the opportunity to dive into the fascinating world of drums and develop your sense of rhythm and technique through individual drum lessons that reflect our vision of being at the forefront of music education with excellence and goal-oriented training.

Our passionate and experienced teachers are dedicated to helping you reach your full potential as a drummer, whether you are a beginner or have been playing for a while. We strive to create a creative and motivating environment where every student can achieve excellence through purposeful teaching. Drums are not just an instrument; they are a way to express your energy and creativity.

Our drumming course covers everything from basic techniques such as holding the drumsticks correctly and playing basic rhythms, to more advanced techniques such as paradiddles, fills and improvisation. Plus, you'll get to explore different styles of music, from rock and jazz to funk and pop, giving you a broad and varied musical experience. We want every lesson to be inspiring and motivating.

Once you have been playing for a while and feel comfortable with your instrument, we also offer the opportunity to play in an ensemble.

For adults

We teach drums to adults, one to one with a teacher – in the daytime or in the evening. You don't need to have played before, and you can start at any time of the year. You choose lessons of 30, 45 or 60 minutes. The groundwork is holding the sticks right and playing basic rhythms, and from there you can play anything from rock and jazz to funk and pop. You begin with a trial lesson, where the teacher gets to know you. Then, together, you find a day and time that suits you.

How it works

At Malmö Musikskola we believe that continuity is crucial for success in music studies.

Unlike other subjects that are naturally used in everyday life, music requires regular practice and guidance, especially at the beginning of studies.

Therefore, we offer a planned study program of 40 lessons over a year, with 17 lessons taking place in the autumn semester and 17 in the spring semester. The remaining lessons are flexibly distributed, mostly during the summer.

Our approach provides students with a stable structure and the opportunity to progress continuously, while enjoying breaks in the summer, as well as during the fall, sports, Christmas and Easter holidays. This balance ensures that each student can progress and achieve their goals without losing touch with their studies for extended periods.

We look forward to supporting you or your child in a stimulating and inspiring musical journey.
