dexter3d Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hi all, My kid needs an experienced drum teacher, preferably in Cambridge area, and preferably smb who’s well versed in jazz or fusion. We might even consider coming to London from time to time, if it were worth it. Any suggestions? Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickD Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 My partner takes lessons from Gabor Dorniyei, and he's a beast... Give him a Google. A great educator, really good with jazz, Latin, fusion... He's off doing a drum camp at the moment, then he's out with playing with Stanley Jordan and Laurence Cottle. He's based in Harrow though, although he does Skype too. I'm unsure of his availability, but he's well worth an enquiry. Only last week he was jamming with Gary Husband... We went down a couple of days later and you could still feel the Rhythm in the room!🤣 Bloody nice fella too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassTractor Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Give Bruford a call. He's most of what Nick says about Gabor. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is fabulous, and such a nice guy too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leschirons Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Michael William Connolly or Pete Riley. Both in Essex though. You'll find them both on Face book. Edited July 14, 2021 by leschirons Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) You could approach your local school or music hub for a recommendation. Make sure whoever you choose has an enhanced DBS check. Edited July 15, 2021 by ambient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gapiro Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) Hey. I'd recommend contacting either Becca Robinson She's moved a little bit out of Cambridge but when I've played with her, she is one of those drummers that I just click with http://www.beccadrums.co.uk/ Luke Pettit He's in Bury St Edmunds, another top drummer and very friendly chap. https://www.lukepettitdrums.com/ Both of these peeps I know through theatre and function work, are both classically trained and very able at all styles. The third person, who I know taught Becca above, I always hear as a recommendation, but I don't know/have never worked with personally is Roger Batting http://rogerbatting.com/home/ Edited July 15, 2021 by gapiro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
