Students will play traditional drums, bells, and rattles, sing in Ghanaian languages, and dance traditional moves according to the calls of the lead drummer. Learning via the same oral tradition that Ghanaian children use to acquire their culture, the class will experience high energy, community building music using West African music elements of polyrhythm, drum language, and call and response. Students will develop their ability to listen while they play, sing while they play, and communicate with great movement energy. May be repeated for a maximum of 3 credits.
