El Pichindé
Event description
El Pichindé is back!
Join us on May 29th at Chestnuts Community Centre to celebrate Afro-Colombian music and traditions.
This special workshop will dive into the powerful world of Bullerengue drumming, exploring its rich rhythms and instruments: Alegre, Llamador, Totuma, and Maracas.
All levels are welcome — whether you're a beginner or experienced percussionist, come connect with the spirit of the drum and express yourself through the power of rhythm.
The workshop will be followed by a jam, so get ready to put everything into practice straight away.
In ancient cultures all over the world drums are considered sacred, and are believed to connect heaven and earth, influencing both cosmic rhythm and the human psyche. They have been -and still are- used in ceremonies as means to maintain the rhythm of the worlds and heal the spirit. The beat of the drum connects us to the beat of our hearts and aligns us to the beat of the earth.
Drums are an essential element that allow us to communicate with each other and to transcend our pain and suffering into rhythm and movement. Drums are a symbol of resistance and connection to the root; they help us enter a state of higher consciousness, acting as a channel to our inner self.
