The Live Oak Library will host a program in honor of Black History Month on Saturday, February 18, 2012, at 1:00 pm, featuring the awesome master percussionist, Clarence “Chazz” Ross. This is a family program and all ages are welcome.
Discover the “Universal Rhythm” during a dynamic, interactive Drum-Circle quest inside a jungle, using twenty African Djembe drums. Kids can immediately create unique sounds, playing rhythms, and singing together. Afterwards, Chazz discusses the health benefits and cultural history of drumming. Join us for this fun and extremely informative program!
Mr. Ross has appeared in movies and theater using his expertise in African music & dance, Latin percussion, and martial arts. His mastery of exotic stick, hand and wind instruments includes congos, bongos, timbales, djembe, dijeridoo, kalimba, udo, whistles, flutes, singing bowls and harmonica
