Exploring sound
I love music
When I was young I used to play the trombone, I absolutely despised because I was made to do it. Now I want to bring the trombone back! I’m scrolling through Facebook market place to find one…
I love attending drumming circles and I have also facilitated a drumming circle workshop. Combining the drumming with visual arts.
I have started to attend a monthly drumming circle at The Land, Little Eaton. A beautiful communal place set in a bluebell woodland and wildflower fields.
My favourite drum is the shamanic drum – I love the sound!
Previously I facilitated a workshop for a group of 3-5 year olds where we made our own instruments, including drums.
Now I’m not professional.. I just like to play and have fun with the instruments. Revoking the pressure of it being ‘perfect’
