Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Drumming – Saturday at KVNF 1:00-2:30pm
This workshop will focus on traditional rhythms and grooves of North African, Persian, Arabian, Balkan, and Turkish orgin as well as some modern applications and musical sensibilities from these regions.  Traditionally these rhythms are played on frame drums (including the tar, the riqq, and the daf) and goblet drums (including the dumbek, darbuka, and zarb), but can be adapted to all hand drums.  Bring your drum or use one of ours.  This workshop is open to beginners and will help to broaden our musical awareness and rhythmic understanding while making these ethnic rhythms fun and accessible.
