Hugo Barrio, a professional drummer and composer, holds a higher degree in Modern Music and Jazz Performance from the Conservatori Superior del Liceu. My training has been complemented by working and learning alongside numerous leading figures in jazz and drumming, and I have professional experience in concerts, recordings, and projects with musicians from the national and international scene. I offer drum lessons tailored to each student, from beginner to advanced levels. We'll work on what you really need: technique, sound, timing, coordination, reading music, improvisation, repertoire, or jazz. I can also help you expand your musical training through modern harmony and composition, with the goal of better understanding music and applying it to your instrument. This will help you speak the same language as the other musicians you share the stage with. My goal is to help you play better, understand the instrument, and develop your own sound and language. The classes are designed around practice and music, aiming to ensure that what we work on has a real-world application when playing. If you are interested in learning drums or continuing to develop as a musician, write to me and tell me what you would like to work on.

Japanese Taiko Drumming (Online and Real Life Lessons)Translate this text using Google Translate.

Japanese Taiko Drumming (Online and Real Life Lessons)Translate this text using Google Translate.

Taiko Drumming is both a traditional instrument and an innovative medium for making contemporary music. I am Eva, a professional Taiko Drummer, and I have playing the Taiko drums for 30 years. Lessons will be taught online on weekdays and on-site in central Tokyo on weekends, in groups. Private lessons can be arranged upon request. Here is my profile: Born in Tokyo, Japan, Eva was raised by a family of scholars and artists with mixed German and Japanese heritage. From a young age, she learned how to play piano after her father introduced her to classical music, while she simultaneously learned Taiko after her mother introduced her to the Japanese arts. After graduating from the International School of the Sacred Heart in Tokyo, Japan, she attended Cornell University in New York, USA, where she earned a B.A. in Philosophy. While attending Cornell, she joined the Cornell University Percussion Ensemble. The following year, she co-founded the Taiko drumming student organization called Cornell Taiko (YAMATAI) and she was the lead drummer and Musical Director. After graduating from Cornell at the young age of 22, she returned to Japan and started performing professionally. She started her solo career a year later. Eva is also trained in Japanese folk dance (with a focus on male styles) and has a passion for street dance and locking. She joined an Awa dance team affiliated with the prestigious Koenji Awa Dance Association and made her way to become one of the top female dancers in Japan. Today, she brings Japanese taiko drumming and song to a brand new context of pop music and also performs with many distinguished artists, musicians, dancers, and Taiko drummers across multiple genres. Eva does not only perform using taiko, she also uses a number of other instruments that have a distinct flavor of the Japanese environment including Koto (Japanese Harp), Voice, and Piano. Eva also works in the field of education and teaches taiko drumming workshops to both children and adults and is also involved in humanitarian efforts such as raising awareness for the disabled. Her music, dynamic performances, and selfless spirit continue to inspire not only her many fans but all who witness her performances all over the world. ​ ​In 2023, her original music was published by Harper Collins Publisher and she was also the cover image of their music textbook. In 2024, her original music was utilized by Cambridge International Curriculum, used in over 160 countries and 10,000 schools, which sets a global standard for education, and is recognized by universities and employers worldwide.

“ He is very insightful and practical how to think or play. He is definitely a musician before a drummer. He immediately figured out my weakness and how to approach to develop to the next step. He reminded me the importance of listening and being able to adopt to the situations rather than being caught up with technicality. It helped me to figure out how to navigate my next directions. I would recommend Darryl. He can expand your mindset and spots that you need to work on. ”

“ Absolutely stellar experience learning from Anton!! Having never taken a music class in my life and starting a new hobby at the age of 30, Anton was the perfect instructor to work with. He was patient, intuitive, and it was evident that he ENJOYED not only teaching but music and drumming itself. If you’re looking for an instructor who you can feel comfortable around learning something new, I highly recommend booking with Anton. 10/10 experience !! ”

“ Yuudai is a great drum instructor. He is not only professional but also very kind and attentive. He makes learning fun and really help you understand the techniques. My drumming has improved even after the first lesson. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, Yuudai is the perfect choice. ”
