Drum Experience

Early Expression

Percussion and singing were likely among the first forms of musical expression for humans. These sounds were driven by the desire to imitate the rhythms of life, nature, and even the universe.

Early Expression

Rhythmic Roots

The cultural fusion of African, Indigenous and European influence produced a variety of rhythms, some uplifting and beautiful, others bold and rebellious. In Uruguay and Argentina, this mixture led to the creation of Candombe and Milonga, which eventually helped shape the iconic Tango.
