World Beat Ensemble
Sean Dowgray, Director

The World Beat Ensemble is a hand drumming group that performs music of West Africa,
                              Brazil, Cuba, as well as original compositions. The aim of the course is to build
                              skills in hand drumming technique, rhythm, and familiarity with various stylistic
                              traits of drumming from around the world. The ensemble rehearses once a week, and
                              performs regularly in the Fairbanks area. Enrollment in the ensemble is open to advanced
                              and beginning players, both degree and non-degree seeking.
