**Max: 100 people, please RSVP to culturalcenter at hampshire.edu** 

Your "Drumming Journey" will begin in Africa, following the evolution of 
African dispora music to Brazil, and to the United States with the
development 
of contemporary funk and hip hop/rap rhythms.  You'll learn about the
different 
cultural styles of percussion music as well as the musical instruments 
themselves. 

Provided will be a huge assortment of hand drums, stick drums, bells,
rattles, 
bass drums, and Balafons for participants to use. 

All levels of drumming experience welcome (bring your own instrument if you 
wish!).
