For all of my percussionists and parents, these videos will thoroughly explain how to properly grip a stick/mallet and strike the instrument. Please watch the video carefully, as the instrument is very fragile and can be damaged if the student is not careful during the handling process. 

Percussion

Below you will find links to several documents that are specific to percussion instruments. Some of these documents are required for participation in class and need to be in the students band binder. If for any reason the students lose a document, they are available for printing from these links. They will receive ONE copy from Mr. Harris in class.
