Young, 14, Drums With St. Louis Philharmonic
Alan Schilling of Belleville Illinois earns a slot in the St Louis Philharmonic at age fourteen. He began drumming at four and balances classical study with rock. His mentor calls him first class and disciplined. He remembers being told he was too small to play yet proves them wrong. He aims to lead a large dance band or join a major orchestra.
