Bucket Drumming
11300 Sorrento Valley Road, Ste 104, San Diego, 92121
Cost: $25
It’s not the instrument, but the player that brings forth joy. Even using the simplest of materials, magic can be made. We will do the same, using five-gallon plastic buckets, 55-gallon trashcans, and drumsticks to make fun and funky music.
In Bucket Drumming, based on the Go-Go street drum tradition of Washington, DC, we will touch on drumming’s history, engage in some quick warm-ups and stretches, learn and implement basic playing techniques, and introduce traditional rhythms.
With that under our belts, we’ll scat and beat our way into creating a tight, interactive percussion orchestra.
