This is a rare opportunity to learn the Glen Velez Signature Frame Drum and Shaker styles from the legendary master himself. Accompanying Glen will be World-Jazz and Rhythm Voice virtuoso Lori Cotler, who will share her innovative and exhilarating vocal approach to drum language, inspired by the magical rare vocal art form from South India known as Konnakol. The student concert at the end of the series will incorporate the frame drum and shaker materials learned in the classes. Each series participant will receive a signed certificate of completion and an individual photograph with Glen Velez and Lori Cotler. A gourmet buffet will be available from Avril Restaurant. Session 1 will feature Southern Indian Cuisine. Instrument Focus: Session 1--Bodhran and shakers.
