Michael Waldrop
Michael Waldrop is arguably one of the most diverse percussionists in the world. He is comfortable in a jazz or commercial music setting as a drumset player, and he is equally at home in a classical orchestral setting. He is a virtuoso marimbist, whether performing his own music, or that of other composers. Michael is also adept at hand drumming, having studied with some of the greatest hand percussionists in the world. He is proficient on the tar as well as conga drums.
In addition to these impressive performance skills, Waldrop is a skilled composer in both the jazz and percussion idioms. His compositions are published by Drop6 Media. He was educated at the University of North Texas, receiving both his BM in Percussion Performance and completing his DMA in Percussion Performance in 1999. He was the drummer for the renowned One O'Clock band in 1994 and can be heard on three CD's with the group: Lab 94, Standard Time, and Fifty Years.
