Ralph Matlock

Director of Percussion

Ralph has been teaching percussionists for over twenty years and has taught at numerous schools in West Tennessee and Western Kentucky. He founded the percussion ensemble program at Lone Oak High School, and then upon the McCracken County school consolidation, continued the after school program at the new location. The Advanced Percussion Ensemble program gives an opportunity to push the students limits as well as create well rounded percussionists. Performing pieces of various styles and time periods as well as other non traditional pieces keeps students interested and learning, while also developing skills and appreciation for all types of percussion.

Originally from West Tennessee, Ralph Matlock attended Murray State University where he marched with the Murray State Racer Band under the direction of John Fannin and Dennis Johnson. Throughout the years he has had the privilege to study under great instructors such as James Powell, Dr. Eric Willie, and Dr. Tom Vanarsdel.
