DAVID VIA ( JANUARY 24th, 1951 - JANUARY 25th , 2010 )
It is our sad news to report that long-time drum instructor and Head of our Drums Department Dave Via passed away last night after a long illness. Dave was the original drum instructor at The Players School of Music and has been teaching with us for over a decade. Dave was a loving and knowledgeable teacher and helped many drummers achieve high levels of skills during his years at the school. His wit, his deep passion of jazz, and his long time love of the New York Yankees made for much fun, music and laughter at the school. Rest In Peace Dave! We will miss you!
