New date! In this class students will learn how to use traditional solos as a starting point for building your own improvisational solos. Basic techniques and common solo licks will be revealed to the students who will then have the opportunity to practice soloing in a failure-free environment.
During the class we will cover the following:
History of the rhythm
Djembe and Dunun parts
Rudiments and improved sound/technique
Reading/Writing djembe/dunun music
And much more
LOCATION: We will meet at Mike’s studio. We go to the nearby Firehouse Subs for lunch or bring your own. *Email Mike Long* at [email protected] to register and he will send the address.
Robin “Bountourabi” Leftwich is a fun and dynamic instructor who shares a wealth of information about the music and culture of West Africa in her classes.
Cost: $100 each or $50 if you've taken the class before.
REGISTER:
Payment can be made using PayPal to [email protected].
Please also send an email to Mike at [email protected] to reserve your spot or request a loaner drum.
Bring your djembe, dununs and water bottle. Get ready to have fun!
The Passport Series is an intensive course that covers rhythms, technique, playing ballet dununs, meter madness, traditional and improvisational solos, and more. Although we encourage you to take each workshop in succession for the best learning experience, it is not required.
