Greetings Everyone!! I'm finally back from an extended teaching break. I have been playing a lot and have plenty of new things to teach. I'll be doing a one-day workshop at Music Explorium in Durham/RTP on Saturday, September 26 from 2-5 pm. It's only $30 so I hope you can show up! All levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced! Head here to pay and for details: http://halobellydanc e.com/john.html See you there!! Please tell everyone you know - beginners are weclome. Details are also below: Arabic Drumming Workshop Date: Saturday, September 26, 2009 Time: 2pm - 5pm Cost: $30 Location: Music Explorium in Durham (RTP), NC What to bring: A doumbek or riq. Several loaner drums are also available. Description: Whether you are new to Arabic percussion or are looking for advanced techniques and stroke refinement, you'll have a great time at this workshop. We will do a short refresher on basic strokes and then work on a series of drills and rhythms which we will link together into a short composition that we'll play together towards the end of the class. Beginners will hold down the rhythm while more advanced students will play some solo riffs and variations to spice things up. Riq students are also welcome. The doumbek, also known as Arabic tableh or darbouka, is popular throughout North Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. It is played tucked under the arm "finger style" and is used in classical, folk, and pop Arabic music, as well as to accompany belly dancers. Belly dancers are also encouraged to take the workshop to strengthen understanding of the rhythmic foundations of dance. - John -------------------- ------------------
