Pandeiro (Brazilian Tambourine) Workshop w/Scott Feiner

House of Musical Traditions, Neighbor

Sponsored by Contemporanea Percussion and House of Musical Traditions.

The pandeiro is a Brazilian hand drum and considered to be the most complete percussion instrument in Brazil.  This workshop is open to all levels and will focus on modern pandeiro techniques and building (and/or refining) a strong foundation. Traditional Brazilian rhythms such as samba, baião & maracatu will be covered as well as other types of rhythms such as 6/8, shuffle and backbeats.  For those already familiar with the pandeiro this will be an opportunity to re-visit one's playing approach and for those getting started, a great chance to get off on the right foot.  Instruments will be available to borrow.  More info on Scott:  www.scottfeiner.com
