Samba Drumming

Date: 15th Jun 2018 @ 8:34am

On Thurdsay, year 5 and 6 were invited to Middlewich High School to learn samba drumming with Mrs Grierson. We were introduced to samba instruments such as a surdo and repinique. There was a rhythm to learn for each instrument, like "fish and chips, sausage and chips" and we had to keep that rhythm going even whilst other people were playing other rhythms. 

Mrs Grierson then taught us about 'breaks' in songs and how to take musical cues from a band leader. It was a brilliant day! 

Our thanks goes to Mrs Grierson - another amazing experience!
