What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I have a wide range of musical tastes, encompassing both popular and classical music from various cultures worldwide. While some styles resonate with me more due to my familiarity with them, particularly when it comes to playing, I firmly believe that good music transcends cultural boundaries and genre limitations. I don’t confine myself to specific musical preferences when it comes to listening or playing.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
My first instrument actually was the keyboard, which taught me how to read music. Studying music at the college and graduate levels necessitates a grasp of music theory, which is usually done on the piano. Additionally, I do all of my composing on the piano. Furthermore, every drummer should have a basic knowledge of melody and harmony.
Apart from these, certain instruments complement each other, such as drums and bass.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My family enjoys listening to music and attending live music shows in a variety of musical styles. Some family members play or have played a musical instrument.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
wer In my case, the decision to pursue music professionally was a gradual one. After completing my undergraduate degree in engineering, I realized that I wanted to explore the possibility of making music a full-time career. It was the right time for me to attend the Drummers Collective in New York City. It was there that I made the decision to dedicate myself entirely to music.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Since I also have a degree in engineering (B.Sc. in Environmental/Civil Engineering from the University of Technology in Munich, GER), I believe I would pursue a career in that field.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Some warm-ups for both the body and mind are essential before diving into the specific topic I want to focus on. Since drums are such a physically demanding instrument, it’s crucial to stretch afterward or at the end of the day. A typical drumming session for me lasts between 40 and 60 minutes, depending on the intensity of the session.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I don’t have a dream piece to perform. What truly matters to me is the opportunity to collaborate with talented individuals and immerse myself in a diverse range of musical genres.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My Master of Fine Arts degree in Jazz Drums from CalArts is primarily focused on performance. I also studied composition and pedagogy there. I pursued a Master’s degree to enhance my musical skills and broaden my musical knowledge.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
These methods serve as the foundation of my teaching, which I adapt to suit each student’s unique interests and requirements. I draw upon a diverse range of books, tailoring my approach to meet the specific needs of each student.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
This is a highly individual question, and the answer varies from person to person. In general, one of the most difficult aspects of playing any instrument is the long-term commitment and patience required for consistent practice.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Of course, awards are great, but music competitions can be highly subjective. I am not discouraging anyone from participating in competitions, but the most important thing in music and art is to do what you love and are passionate about. Everything else will naturally follow.
