The magazine has announced the application rules for the annual Neil Peart Spirit of Drumming Scholarship, which was previously announced by his widow, Carrie Nuttall-Peart, at the 2020 Modern Drummer Festival.

Those who are legal U.S. citizens (sorry Canadians), between the ages of 14-21, not a professional musician, and not under any sponsorship or entertainment contract are eligible to apply by Nov. 26.

They must submit up to a two-minute video of their playing and a short essay describing why the scholarship will be significant to both their life and their drumming.

  1. BUFFERY: In a world of drummers, Neil Peart was king

  2. ‘GUT PUNCHED’: Death of Rush drummer Neil Peart resonates worldwide

  3. Geddy Lee’s upcoming memoir helped him deal with Neil Peart’s death

The winner gets 52 weeks of free drum lessons from world-class drum instructor Dom Famularo, a one-year subscription to Modern Drummer All Access, plus a selection of classic Rush albums.

The recipient will be announced at the Modern Drummer 2021 Festival, as well as featured in an upcoming issue of Modern Drummer.

Peart died of brain cancer in January 2020 at the age of 67.
