What is Drum Tales?
Drum Tales is fun, interactive, percussive and musical. It is much like the traditional drum circle concept, yet we have taken it to a new level, combining story-telling, musical instrumentation, and song. Each participant is given a percussive instrument which becomes their medium of transportation to far-away lands and exotic places, to ride the waves of mystery of an unfolding plot, and into the deep realm of imagination and the colorful beyond.
Sharing in the tradition of Peter and the Wolf, each character has their own musical and percussive personality. As our stories unfold, and the characters step into the spotlight of the plot in motion, the different musical and percussive innovations follow the characters through the stories and into the mystery of how it will unravel.
"The (Drum Tales) Lion King of Africa is an amazing interactive drumming program for kids of all ages! Our school children ranged from ages 2 – 13 and every one of them was completely entertained and mesmerized by the drumming, storytelling and charisma of the entertainers! These guys are fabulous!! A definite must at parties, school programs and other events."
