Middle Eastern Drumming Class at Barnsdall Arts Center:
Next Session starts on:
April 18, 2008 @ 6:30 P.M.

Classes are held at the Barnsdall Arts Center  located at: 4800 Hollywood Blvd. / one block south of Vermont. Classes are open to all levels, everyone is welcome. 
Each session runs for 8 Fridays, 2 hours each for a very small fee. 

You learn to play the most popular rhythms used in classical and folk Arabic & Turkish music using one of these popular Middle Eastern drums: Darabukka or Egyptian Tabla (goblet drum), Riqq (tambourine) or Bendir (frame drum), or bring your own drum. If you don't have a drum and need one, I can help you obtain one for a reasonable price. 

The class includes some live music performed by the instructor or other visiting artists, you get to drum and accompany the musician who will be playing different kinds of instruments ranging from Turkey, Iran and the Middle East, depending on the guest artist (when available).
