Tamborim Basic Instruction

Remko, thanks for the tutorial tamborim class. I've picked up a few more tips and a better understanding of the samba rhythm. There's always something new to learn.

Things start to make sense now that we play REGULARLY with the cavaco and ....for the dancers. Gianna and her students bring the standard a notch higher. Very good arrangement and precise improvised dance choreograph . I quite enjoy the last rehearsal.

Be nice to Gianna , Remko. We want her and her students to dance with us for a long time.

With Brian on that one.
One thing I learned playing djembe (this is just for you Remko :p) - I mean, African drumming, not "look at me I hit a drum on the beach", is that dance is the POINT of the music. Makes everybody play better, harder, longer...

Nothing in particular, Remko. Just making sure Gianna has a glass of wine before class and VIP parking space.
