Notes: This course is designed to investigate the drumming traditions of several of the world¿s cultures. Students will develop an understanding of musical structure, style, the differing cultures¿ aesthetic viewpoints, and the music's function and context within those diverse societies. By playing various hand drums students will develop drumming skills and will become familiar with the rhythms and techniques of selected drumming traditions including African, Arabic, Brazilian, Cuban, Indian, Japanese and Middle Eastern traditions. Thus the course will be primarily academic - as cultural context and rhythm theory are examined, with a practical component: playing hand drums and learning to play the drums and the rhythms. As this course has no prerequisite, the material taught will be accessible to students with no musical training or coursework.
