Status Quo at Babington
On Monday 28th Sept the drummer with Status Quo, Jeff Rich, visited Babington for a Masterclass in percussion.
After teaching the pupils about the history of percussion through the ages, Jeff not only gave a fabulous insight into the skill of playing the drums, but also gave pupils the opportunity to join in.
From tamborines to maracas, tom toms to bells, every type of instrument was available.
The Masterclass aims to encourage pupils to take up any instrument, not necessarily drums, and as Jeff himself says "The whole idea of my Masterclass is to inspire students to learn an instrument and if I achieve that, then my job in done."
