WORKSHOPS FOR SCHOOLS K-12 Bongo
Boy Music School is honored to have worked with many schools over
the years, K-12, providing rhythm based workshops for the students
and music teachers. Our Facilitators will customize a program based
on the teacher/student needs. Lots of games can be played with our
customized drum circles/rhythm workshops using drums, percussion,
homemade or found instruments, or any other creative instruments
you can think of. Bongo Boy Music School brings all drum and percussion
equipment to your school (enough for up to 150 students). We also
provide space for field trips to Bongo Boy Music School should you
want to make the trip to Castleton instead of us coming to you.
Some schools we have worked with include: We
have facilitated events for as few as 15 students to 5000+ students
at the same time. We also provide workshops for music teachers or
anyone interested in using rhythm based workshops and recreational
music making in the school environment. Call Lisa Dehnke at 317-771-0241
for more information.

Drum Circles are all about: ****************************************************************************
The spirit and magic of rhythm expressed on drums and percussion instruments cuts through all ages, sexes, religions, races and cultures. "Rhythm", as Gabriel Roth says, "is the mother tongue." Rhythm is a universal language known to every one, even the youngest child, if we can just "remember." So in a very objective, yet beautiful way, an interactive rhythm event puts us all on an equal footing with each other and brings us closer together. The facilitator serves this process by guiding the participants to their highest musical potential. A community drum circle is created, "in the moment" by all the people who participate. Co-operation and collaboration is the basic glue. When we drum together, sharing our spirit in the form of rhythm, it changes our relationships. As we play together, we give ourselves a rhythmical massage and an emotional release. The experience is unique to each person in the circle, and it happens whether we are entraining ourselves into the circle by drumming, or standing outside the circle and listening while tapping our feet and clapping along with the music. There
are many places where drum circles are being used for many purposes,
like.... To make beautiful music together, all we have to do is bring to the circle whatever rhythmical expertise we have to offer, along with the excitement of sharing it with other people. The quality of the music produced in an event like this is not based on the rhythmical expertise of the players, but on the quality of their relationship with the other people in the circle. The result is those magical musical moments where one powerful voice is created out of the many. In those moments, the players stop worrying about keeping time because time, as they know it, has stopped. In it's place is a living breathing entity, expressing timeless joy, passion and release through the power of rhythm. That is the beauty of a community drum circle. -Arthur
