helpful resource."

It's our way of passing forward some of the knowledge we've received all these years.
 

   


 


WHO ARE WE?

Although several of us work behind the scenes, most of the time you’ll speak with me, Rob Zollman. Primarily a player and educator, my experience includes over 40 years of performing, recording, teaching, band leading, managing and producing. Along the way I’ve paid close attention to what’s going on in the music industry, and made lots of good friendships with dealers, distributors and other industry people.

When I moved to central Vermont, I found there were few music stores around. Through my various connections, I was able to become a dealer of many the items you find drum and percussion products catalogue, and so began the Brandon Trading Emporium,

A few years ago, I wrote a book Whole Music Drumming, a unique, comprehensive and musical approach to learning drumming. As an educator, I’ve taught over a thousand students, many of whom have gone on to successful careers in music. Several can be found on jazz, classical and pop recordings.  

I’ve got some well-founded views about what’s going on in percussion education and music education in general. If you’re interested, check out my upcoming blog and my Whole Music Learning website. Give me a call at 802 345-1714 and I’ll be glad to chat with you.
