Drum Circle is a session where people meet and play hand drums together. Instrument used are: djembe, conga, bongo, and other types of hand percussions. Basically you can bring anything that you can bang and make a sound to a drum circle. Usually drum circle is facilitated by a person known as a drum circle facilitator. Facilitator's main function is to guide the circle towards creating 'in the moment' music. Drum circle should be fun and a recreational way to make music. Drum circle is different from a percussion performance because there should be no audience, instead, everyone should participate and be a part of the circle. Anyone can simply join a drum circle without any prior music knowledge. It's easy, it's addictive!!
