PERCUSSION CLASSES
Join Mestre Papiba, Joe Mailloux, and guest instructors, as we explore samba and other Afrocentric percussion traditions

Brazilian Percussion:


​
Community Group

These classes are dedicated to the study of Brazil's secular drumming traditions (batucada, maracatu, samba reggae, samba afro, ijexa). ​Class efforts frequently culminate in opportunities for local performances. 



Afro Folkloric Percussion 

This class examines the drumming and percussion of Afro-Brazilian, Afro-Cuban, and West African music & dance traditions. We emphasize hand drum technique and performance practices as we explore congas, auxiliary percussion (bells, claves, and shakers), songs, and more.
Instruments are provided. Personal instruments and drumstick are encouraged but not required.
