Robin Layne returns for "Latin Rhythms Part II" !!

Those of you who participated in Robin's workshop a few months ago will attest to the fact that is was an awful lot of FUN! And exciting new rhythms were learned, too! Robin, percussionist with the amazing group Tambura Rasa,  is a great teacher and everyone is welcome to join in, whether or not you participated in Part I !
Robin will be giving two workshops, in much the same format as last time:
 Latin Rhythms Workshop II

Taking up where Latin Rhythms left off, this will be a dynamic workshop focused on exploring the folkloric rhythms of Cuba.  You will learn the techniques of conga drumming (on your djembe, or bring a conga drum), and popular rhythms such as marcha, bomba, columbia, and guanguanco.  A review of samba rhythms covered last time will also be presented.  No previous experience with latin rhythms necessary, some drumming experience recommended.  

Funk Grooves and Solo phrases 

Learn some funky grooves that can be played with other drummers or at a jam.  Learn about improvising together to create your own grooves and how to solo.  Robin will share a variety of two or three part grooves for Djembe that are great for jamming.  Several solo phrases will be taught to start building up a vocabulary on the drum.  Gain confidence and improvise together with guidance to co-create a groove.   All drummers welcome! 

Date for these workshops will be October 23rd. Time, venue and cost TBA. Keep checking back here for more info in the weeks to come.
