Christian Snedeker is a versatile percussionist based out of Orlando, Florida. Christian has experience in many styles of performing, education, composing/arranging, and recording.

My parents instilled in me from a very young age that chasing vanity as an artist is the quickest way to fail. As a musician, I am constantly striving to be the most reliable and collaborative professional I can be.

Being a Percussionist requires you to be a jack of all trades. Versatility and musical authenticity are my two goals of expression. Combining my classical experience and drumset experience with a deep background in rudimental percussion creates a unique voice. I strive to improve myself everyday and am committed to becoming the most complete percussionist/musician I can be.
"As for his musical abilities, let me just say, he is a consummate musician in any style and is as expressive in classical percussion as he is playing any style on drum set. His technical abilities are fluent and effortless. His sound is that of a seasoned artist." - John Wittmann: AVP, Yamaha Artist Relations.
"In over thirty years of private teaching, I would easily put Christian as one of my top students. He has mastered performance techniques far above students of his age level. He is very musical in his approach to percussion." - John Evans: Principal Timpanist, Naples Philharmonic.
"Christian brings a high level of passion and fire to the bandstand. He has studied the drumming of the great masters Art Blakey, Max Roach, Philly Joe Jones and Sonny Payne and he incorporates their influences into his own very swinging playing... His drumming has many excellent qualities, but most importantly, Christian swings hard and plays with complete authority. His technique and musicianship is quite mature." - Dan Miller: Jazz Trumpet Legend -- Harry Connick Jr., Woody Herman, Tom Jones, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.
