Community Hand Drumming Class

A relaxed exploration into the rhythms of W. Africa and the African Diaspora. Participants will learn the fundamental language of the drum and how to create meaningful dialogue, along with essential playing and listening techniques. We usually take a deep-dive into the songs of the dun duns and how those parts and the djembe parts fit together to create multi-layered rhythms. Some drums will be provided or feel free to bring your own djembe, conga or ashiko style drum. $10 requested donation.

At to our warm-weather locale (weather permitting)
If it’s wet we’ll be back at SCOW, 284 Washington Street, Wallingford, CT.
