Ethan Sokol, Guest teacher George Kirby class of '79

Single session event

Spend an evening learning Middle Eastern rhythms on the dara bukka/dumbeg, an hourglass-shaped drum. We will be learning and practicing a variety of rhythms and techniques, especially as used for folk dancing. Bring your own drum if you have one. If you have any interest in learning more about Middle Eastern culture this program is for you!
We have a few extras drums to use for practice, feel free to come with other instruments.
