    Description
    World Music Ensemble III is a performance ensemble that exposes students to a variety of world music traditions, including those found in Uganda (East Africa), Ghana (West Africa), Zaïre (Central Africa), and Brazil (South America). Students learn intermediate-advanced drumming techniques on a variety of percussion instruments with stick and hands, traditional hand drumming repertoire, and learn to sing traditional vocal pieces in foreign languages. Repertoire is learned through oral tradition and alternative notation. There is no prior experience or audition required. This course is open to all students who have an interest in music.
