Description
This 10 Player Wide Top Starter Djembe Pack is an ideal choice for lunchtime and after-school groups, as well as small class groups of secondary pupils or adult players. Perfect for schools looking to introduce the collaborative ‘learning by playing’ method on a smaller scale before committing to a full-class ensemble, this pack offers a comprehensive introduction to West African drumming.
The pack includes 3 top-quality Pro Wide Top Djembe drums and 7 percussion instruments, providing a wide range of authentic West African drumming sounds. With three sizes of djembes, your group can easily differentiate between the low, medium, and high parts of various drumming pieces.
The Pro Wide Top djembes are designed to be lighter and more compact than traditional djembes, making them perfect for classroom use. The drums feature extra-wide, durable heads, smooth shells, and rubber edging to protect both the instruments and the floor. This makes them ideal for schools and small group ensembles.
Also included are two acclaimed teaching guides by world music expert Andy Gleadhill: ‘West African Drumming Book 1’ and ‘Percussion Buddies’. The West African Drumming Book takes your group from the basics to their first performance in just 10 lessons, offering a comprehensive repertoire for up to a year of playing. The Percussion Buddies book will show how to develop percussion accompaniments for a variety of musical styles, including drumming, choral, and ukulele ensembles.
West African Drumming is an ideal activity for schools from KS1 to KS4, offering inclusive participation for students of all abilities. The transformative power of music often helps hard-to-reach pupils progress significantly, engaging them in ways other subjects cannot.
