Information

The Art of Drumming

My goal as a teacher is not to make you the best drummer in the world, because that’s subject to opinion. My goal is to expose you to as much rhythmic information through listening analysis and practice so you leave here with an opinion of who you are as a musician/drummer, and have the ability and the skills to express this through your instrument to anyone in the world.

Ed Bettinelli has been a stylized performing and recording artist for the past 30 plus years.
Ed's focus over the years has been on original music, with two projects signed to major record deals on Geffen and RCA records. Both of these bands involved Ed assuming most of the day to day business responsibilities along with writing and arranging contributions. Playing to coliseum capacity crowds before such acts as PAT BENETAR, BON JOVI, ASIA, AVERAGE WHITE BAND, SPLIT ENZE, THE TUBES, JACK BRUCE and many others in countless juke joints, has well defined Ed's experiences as a dynamic performer.
Recording with high profile producers such as Keith Olsen, David Thoener, Gary Lyons, David Prater and Auther Pason has contributed to his skills as a player and has added to his musical sensibility. Ed's musical background includes graduating from the Berklee College of Music, and years of private study with such instructors as Alan Dawson, Peter Erskine, Gary Burton, Al Miller, Joe Hunt, Mike Clark, and Kim Planfield, contribute to his playing and teaching philosophy.
Ed currently lives in Dobbs Ferry where he offers private drum instruction and master classes, and records drum tracks.Whether it's his playing, his instruction or his personality, Ed is the consummate professional. His playing? Solid. His attitude? Positive. From Tony Williams to Vinnie Colaiuta, Mitch Mitchell to John Bonham, he's well versed in many styles of music and the drummers that go with them.
