The Tahitian Drum Workshop was outstanding! T.Fere Itae was beyond amazing. Even though he never spoke English, we all understood what he was conveying, musically. I'm not a percussionist, but I left that workshop with a good foundation, to build upon. T.Fere Itae took the time to assist each student individually on all of the patterns he taught. I was surprized how large the size of the advanced class was (I only did the beginner's class, as that proved to be more than enough for my skill level). This is the first time I ever tried a to'ere. In the photos you'll see I brought two sets of bongos and a djembe. There are not many sources on the web for to'eres and none of the local music stores had even heard of them. Ric
It's easier to ask for forgiveness, than permission!
