Robert Chapman Signs With TAMA | BERGERAULT

Robert Chapman began his musical studies early on, but discovered his love for the percussive arts at age 11 and started perusing his passion for the marimba. Since then, he has had the opportunity to perform in concert halls in countries all over the world. As a marimba soloist, Robert has received international recognition for his accomplishments in performance and competition.
