Fonziba brings her popular West African Drumming Circle. Drums are a vital component of West African culture and are played at all important life events including marriages, funerals, harvests, celebrations, and rites of passage. In this workshop, participants will experience the power of African village drumming together as a group on 30 authentic djembe hand-drums from the Ivory Coast, West Africa. As they learn African polyrhythms comprised of 3-5 rhythms played simultaneously, they will see how Africans combine self-expression with teamwork to create a village drum band.
