EWE RESIDENCY AT THE PHILADELPHIA SCHOOL


Check out this clip of Brad's Ewe drumming residency at The Philadelphia School. All month he will be working with an ensemble of middle school students teaching them about this amazing Ghanaian tradition and preparing them for a performance at the end of the month. As you can see from this clip, this music is infectious!

  1. I'm having trouble keeping up with all the videos and updates (which is a great problem to have)! Thanks for sharing the Guaguanco lesson; the "say it" method really clicked for me in this one, and I plan to watch it again so I can tap along on my desk. :-) (And that's saying something, because I have zero natural rhythm!)
