Sven Eric Radhe
Sven has been teaching since 2004. This includes his international instruction in Panama. He has performed with bands in the Baltimore/Washington DC area in the genres of Jazz, Fusion, Rock, Funk, R&B, Marching band, and Symphonic band. He was a member of the Baltimore Ravens Marching band, The Columbia Concert Band, The Columbia Jazz Band, and a founding member of the bands Secret Language, Sound Makers Union, and SoulTET. His teaching style is tailored to each student because of the uniqueness of each individual. His drum lessons include a focus on stick and mallet technique, movement fundamentals, Music reading, Concert band percussion, drum set performance, Transcription, improvisation, self discipline, and building confidence.
Sven had the privilege of teaching in Santiago de Veraguas, Panama. There he taught in Spanish and focused on Technique, Music Notation, Transcription, and specifically American Marching percussion styles. The name “Sven” looks and sounds very similar to the number “Seven” so most of the students and faculty called him “Profesor Siete” which translates to “Professor Seven.” Music is the true international language and can be used to bridge most any gap between people and cultures.
