DRUM!POWER

The 60 minute show centers on BUILDING PERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS

DRUM!POWER focuses on Nova Scotia’s founding cultures; Aboriginal, Acadian, Black and Celtic. Four percussionists, one from each culture, share with participants both their personal experience, and what music and rhythm means to them.  These interactive sessions promote positive group interaction through music, rhythms and percussion.
The performers teach each group a basic rhythm on their instrument ultimately bringing the rhythms together while singing a traditional Mi’kmaq song.  The result is a uniquely uplifting and unifying experience that demonstrates that: “we can remain who we are and still share a song, a stage, a country, a world.”

During the show, participants will:


• Understand that people are different but equal.   
• Recognize that everyone has the potential to learn and no one is inferior.
• Encourage the ability to ask for help, as needed, when needed.
• Look to others to learn, regardless of the other’s title or position.
• Respect each other and each other’s efforts to excel.
• Have fun, regardless of title or position.
