Student Reviews
Ward has brought his lively spirit into our home, inspiring our son to play and practice like never before. The cello has come alive for us, thanks to Ward's professional, disciplined and wild love of music. It's contagious! We are lucky to know such a talented musician who can connect with people of all ages. We've never met a cooler cello teacher.
Ellen and Greg, parents Teacher: Ward W.About the Drums
By the 1950s big bands were becoming uneconomical and jazz more obscure, thus rock and roll became the leading music genre. In 1964 drumming became more popular when Ringo Starr of The Beatles played his Ludwig kit on American television.
