Raquy Drum Show @ Ewart Hall 18th March


Hey All.
The Drum show is this wednesday. If you live in Cairo and are not too far away from Down Town, i suggest you check it out.

The show features pieces written by Raquy, performed by her group, demonstrating a command of the Dumbek (a.k.a the tabla) which is rarely seen in these parts.

The show is @ Ewart Memorial Hall, Sheikh Rahan ST, Just off Tahrir Square. Show starts at 8PM, and is FREE admission.

This isn't a normal tabla type performance, since the music features contemporary techniques, rhythms, and grooves & dynamics which are highly infectious and hypnotic.

Raquy won't be doing any shows till either the summer, or next year here in Cairo, so it's not something you want to miss out on.

All my students, from MUSC 280 and 180, you know that you are to attend this concert. No exceptions. See you all there! More details of what i've been up to in the last few days to come later when i have a moment. Adios!
