Traditionally, the drum was the heartbeat, the soul of most African communities.
Drums have been an intrinsic part of African life for centuries and for countless generations, an ancient instrument used to celebrate all the aspects of life.
In Western culture, drumming is most often, about entertainment. In Africa, drums hold a deeper, symbolic and historical significance. They herald political and social events attending ceremonies of birth, death and marriage. They spark courtships, they herald home coming and going and they accompany religious rites and rituals, calling up ancestral spirits.
