For those wishing to go further in their study of percussion and the discovery of new rhythms and new musical textures, this ensemble will explore other rhythmic traditions: Turkish, Iranian, Indian, Cuban and Arabic, as well as contemporary music and even directed improvisation. Participants should show a little more virtuosity and responsiveness to the rhythms and unusual instruments. Odd rhythms, lame rhythms, rhythmic cycles and a different approach to percussion; this ensemble is for all those who see beyond the 4 / 4.
