Hi drummers,

I'm looking for fun, chilled out players to join me in playing Malinke rhythms, with djembe solo, djembe support and dun dun parts. I am based in Southampton.

Criley3. There are a few teachers in Norwich and Drum Camps at Aylsham. Try looking up Djole for local teachers.

Hi ndama,
Thanks for the news of 'a day's workshop of West african drumming' but can you tell us what day?
thanks

Ian on Wednesday 02 May 2007 - 06:48:19

No - a drum with a head size of only 7" is not big enough to play like a djembe. (no bass) Consider buying a djembe with a head of at least 12" and long enough so you can sit and it rests on the floor.

mrc on Thursday 26 April 2007 - 02:07:06

im a new drummer would a sageman 12'x7' djembe be good for me
