Beginning Middle Eastern Drumming Ensemble

<>Please join us for our summer mini-semester Middle Eastern Drumming Ensemble

We will learn the basic Eastern Dance Rhythms, study the music you would play them with, and learn a little about Arabic culture

No previous experience necessary, and we can help you buy a drum!

We can hold the program for from 4 to 6 weeks (depending on your schedule) and will arrange the class time to fit everyone's availability

This could lead to a regular ensemble that could perform as part of our CMP family concerts, and we could also consider a study trip to Morocco, Palestine, or Turkey down the road.

Tuition: $25/class
