Those who follow me on my social media saw me post some info about bucket drumming, but I wanted to share it with you, my newsletter-readers.
I hope you enjoy it! Please let me know if you do so I'll know to include more informative segments like this in the future.

Human ingenuity never ceases to amaze me! Imagine having the opportunity to turn "garbage" into an educational experience. Take for example the fine art of bucket drumming.
Bucket drumming was popularized in New York City in the 1980s, although the creation of sound and music with disposable objects goes way back.
Bucket drummers usually use five gallon plastic buckets, but you can experiment with different sizes and materials, from water bottles to huge containers, and even pots and pans.

This style of music making is very popular in cities such as New York, Chicago, and Seattle.
Buckett drumming is an amazing gateway for children and adults to start experimenting with music. I've created a series of programs with the goal of encouraging such experimentation. Ask me about them, I'll be glad to share them with you!
