International Drum Group

This will be our 1st drum group session. Beginners welcome, we will be starting with basic drum patterns and it is, of course, free.

We will be using an international selection of drums as this is what we have available: djembes, congas,  talking drum. Also various shakers, shekere , “cowbells” and blocks. We will learn to play the different tones that can be made on a hand drum and these are the same for many types of drum.

Playing is for fun. We will from time to time be able to use these rhythms in our Mass also.

Drums and percussion provided but if you have your own then please bring. Do let me know if you are a drummer who can help with the group. Speak to Paul Ashton, message here or email music@ourladyofhope.org.uk
