The Port Washington Music House's Drummer in residence. We
are very proud to introduce Kenny Hassler.
Kenny knows what it takes to be a great drummer, and he knows how to pass that knowledge on. He has done Albums, Jingles, Broadway, Rock Shows, Jazz Clubs, Cabaret Acts, and he leads his own Latin Fusion Band. He has studied with many teachers ranging from Classical percussionists to famous Jazz drummers. Along the way Kenny has developed a style of teaching that is precise and direct. All styles of drumming are taught. Emphasis on the basics at first (rudiments and reading) to give a strong foundation. Then on to Rock, Jazz, Funk, Latin, Sight Reading, Military, Classical and many more. Special attention is given to School Ensemble work and N.S.S.M.A. solos. For the older students that have taken lessons previously, Kenny offers conceptual guidance, along with 25 years of professional playing experience. He will access the student's strong points as well as weaknesses and bring the student to the level of totally balanced player, enabling him or her to handle, any musical situation.
