OVERVIEW

Vishal Mehta has been providing drum set instruction privately for over 15 years. Vishal focuses on the art of using “approaches” to convey particular ideas and concepts to his students. This is an excellent tool used to enable the student to better understand and retain what is taught during the lesson.

In any given lesson, the emphasis is usually placed on technique, rudiments, theory, ear training, timekeeping, performing skills, adapting to different styles, and feels. To help apply what is learned, time is always spent during each lesson playing along with music from his extensive music library which has been custom-tailored for the drummer.
