Drum Clinics

Florian Alexandru-Zorn Clinic

Rhythm Base are proud to present Florian Alexandru-Zorn in clinic.

Thursday 17th May 2012 @ Rhythm Base, 31-33 Commerce Street. Doors Open 7pm.

This event is FREE OF CHARGE - arrive early though to get a good view as there will be NO advance tickets required.

In this clinic Florian shows you how to apply your own grooves, your own musical language to the world of brushes.

Florian has assembled the most comprehensive and clear concept for brush technique for every drummer ever available. This Workshop will totally reveal the secret of playing brushes not by giving mindless and endless patterns but by gathering every concept for each playing style and genre from Jazz to Funk or even Reggae.
The Brush Secret is both suitable for beginners and advanced players. It'll give you the freedom behind the drumset that you will need to apply your own voice to the brushes.

Florian was born in August 1984 and began playing the drums at the age of 8 in a local traditional german drum corps. At the age of nine he got his first modern drum lessons.

His musical career began in the progressive rock genre with bands such as Concrete Floor. At the age of 18 Florian was touring with Romuald Erenc (one of the most renowned jazz and classical guitar players in Poland) and his band through Poland and Germany.

Other projects Florian is involved with include: Jazz Quadrat (Jazz/World), Christoph Neuhaus Quintet (Jazz), Ken Kenay (Hip Hop). He has also worked with the european masterclass big band, conducted by Peter Herbolzheimer.

Florian has done many workshops and clinics in support of his brush book "Die Kunst des Besenspiels" (The Art of Brush Playing). He is also a workshop author for the German drum magazine "Sticks".

Florian was recently featured alongside Gavin Harrison and The Drumbassadors in the promo video for the new Sonor ProLite kit.
