Hi! My name is Calvin Miller, I'm a music teacher, performer, transcriber, and content creator.
I run my own home studio out of Akron, OH where I've been teaching in a variety of large and small group settings for over 10 years. I started my musical journey in 5th grade participating in public school band. After high school I joined the United States Army to fund my higher education. I attended The United States Army School of Music in 2013 and was a member of The 122nd Army Band for 7 years where I received extensive performance experience. During my time in the military, I received my formal education at The University of Akron receiving a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education and a Bachelor's Degree in Percussion Performance. I frequently perform in the Akron,Cleveland, Canton, and Columbus area in Rock, Jazz, Funk, and Pop settings.
I offer a wide variety of services
Lessons
I offer personalized music lessons for percussion/drum set, piano (beginner to intermediate), and steel drums, available both online and in person. Choose from tailored small group lessons (1-8 students) or customized private sessions.
Transcription
I frequently transcribe different styles of music for my students and video performances. I am able to provide an accurate transcription of almost any drum set part in a multitude of different styles. Pricing depends on the difficulty and length of the piece of music.
Recording
In my home studio I frequently record myself performing for content creation. I can record and mix drums from my digital audio workstation for various musical projects. Pricing depends on the amount of recordings and the difficulty of the music.
