Come and learn to play the steelpan drums and other percussion instruments in the magnificent Durbar Hall in Hastings Museum!

Hastings Museum & Art Gallery

The extremely talented musician and teacher J﻿im Bernardin (worldmusicworkshops.co.uk) will guide you through this fun workshop on the steelpan drums and other percussion instruments in the magnificent Durbar Hall in Hastings Museum. You will not only have fun trying these unusual and beautiful instruments and learn the basics, but you will also be able to play a tune by the end.If you have attended one of Jim’s workshops in the past, or already have experience playing the steelpan drums, the intermediate session is right for you. Jim learnt to sight-read as a kit drummer, and quickly established himself drumming for shows and backing artists in residencies on land and on cruise-ships. He later studied the marimba, piano, steel pan and more recently the bass guitar, gaining a first class music degree in 1998 and a Masters 2020.Teaching has been a passion for twenty five years now, as has creating and directing successful community projects like Worthing Steel Band from 2012-2021. In addition to his bespoke multicultural-influenced percussion workshops, Jim remains an active musician on steel pan and drum kit in the genres of Latin Jazz, Caribbean, Afro-Cuban and Brazilian music.
