A series of 11 afternoons of carnival drumming, music making and fun for young people aged 11-18. Led by the young leaders of Manchester based Jubacana at Band on the Wall, supported by a team of great musicians, drummers and dancers and directed by Holly Prest. No experience necessary, just loads of friendly energy and enthusiasm!
These accessible workshops will pass on some of the most exciting mass drum techniques of Brazil on a wide variety of traditional Northeast-Brazilian percussion instruments (all provided) as well as offer opportunities to play drum kit, guitars, keyboards, and sing.
