Bomba!
The Bomba rhythm is a signature protest rhythm of Puerto Rico dating back to the African diaspora. There are many different ‘Bombas’, this session will serve as an introduction and allow you to see how different tonal polyrhythms come together to form a rhythmic melody.
Originally played on Spanish rum barrels (Bombas), in this session we’ll be playing djembes, kpanlogos, dun dun bass drums and a range of percussion including bells, shakers and clave. Expect big drum breaks, big smiles and most of all lots of fun!
