Jerry Leake, Director and Drummer; Lisa Leake, Dancer, Vocalist
Sunday, July 18 – Saturday, July 24, 2010
Schedule: Saturdays and Sundays 9am-3:30pm Weeknights 6pm-9pm
NEC Jazz percussionist Jerry Leake and dancer/vocalist Lisa Leake, present their original 3-tiered method of reciting African and Indian drum compositions against a background of stick patterns and basic movement. Musicians and non-musicians will find this a challenging but accessible entry into African and Indian music & dance practices. In this intensive workshop, rhythm theory and practice merge through intensive practice and application that aurally and kinesthetically grounds one’s time.
Classes are demanding, but prior experience with drumming is not expected or required. Participants include college music faculty, K-12 teachers, committed amateurs, professional performers, students of all ages, jazz, world and rock musicians and composers. Sticks, CDs and detailed handouts provided at a minimal cost. On the final evening of the workshop, students will participate in an informal public performance.
