The Famoudou Konate Mini–Camp - Boston 2007!
May 30, 31, June 1, 2 & 3, 2007
Exact location TBA, Boston Area
ALL LEVELS – Beyond Beginner to Professionals and Teachers
This 5 Day Workshop is a total immersion with one of the greatest djembe
players/
historians/teachers in the world today. ALL djembe players owe much of their
information
and playing skills to Famoudou Konate.
The workshops will sell out. Please take this opportunity to consider a 'trip to
Africa'
WITHOUT the airplane fare!
Come join us to experience how great these workshops are. You will learn it ALL
and come
away a vastly improved player. You will learn all the djembe lines, traditional
solos, full
arrangements that Famoudou has made famous AND all of the dunun (bass drum and
bell)
patterns that make the COMPLETE RHYTHM. Famoudou will also teach you the songs
and
the meaning of the words as well as the melodies and variations. You will come
away with
enough material to keep you busy for a long, long time. And Famoudou's spirit is
infectious. Healings take place! We'll dance and sing and have many moments of
sheer
JOY!
Five days with Famoudou Konate is like a trip to Guinea and is a rare and unique
experience. This series will sell out. We have strict limits on registrations so
no special
exceptions can me made. Register early to avoid disappointment. We turned away
over 40
people last year and the year before that to give quality instruction as
Famoudou Konate
wishes.
