Intro to Puerto Rican Bomba
Sat 29 March - 11am to 1pm
A Puerto Rican rhythm rooted in the island's history of African Slavery. This music became symbolic of the Puerto Rican identity and can be traced back to its African heritage. Traditionally played on barrel shaped drums, we will play a mixture of congas and Ghanaian kpanlogos as well. Each tuned slightly differently to create a rhythmic melody. This is an upbeat, lively and accessible rhythm. There will also be a range of percussion and bass drums to complete a fully uplifting sound that will leave you energised and full of beans! No experience necessary! Starting from scratch, you will learn basic fundamental techniques which will have you grooving in no time. All sessions come with access to digital resources and a recording of our final piece.
Big beats, Big breaks and lots of laughs.
Come and have some fun with us!
