Conga Drum!

When i chose the workshop of music and creativity i could not imagine that this would be sooo interesting..I only remember some strange white letters in the blackboard like meter, beat, 2/2 & 4/4, etc etc and then we all took the conga drums..That was it..

In the beginning we tried to follow the rythm that the tutor produced, we tried to learn some meters and we tried to improvise.. All these conga drum sounds that we were producing either individually or in groups were reminding me sounds of Africa, of tribes, of..of..If i closed my eyes i can imagine only tribe people in a wild forest participating in ceremonies, or celebrating..It was such an interesting trip...And suddenly without realizing how, all these sounds made a song... The combination of all conga drums was finally the
"The Pfeifer Broz Orchestra Sex and the City", if you check it online you will understand..


I was so suprised when i realized that the lesson was to finished and that it was almost 12..It was the forst time that i was playing this instrument and i really enjoyed this class. I am looking forward for the continue..
