Workshop
Multicultural Music Residency
One World Music Alicia will begin by sharing her
South American cultural background and show
students some unique musical instruments from
around the world. She will lead them in movement
games including using the body as a percussive
instrument and engage them in ‘call and response’
exercises. Students will have the opportunity to
play various percussion instruments (bamboo
drums, shakers, guiros, cowbell, tambourines,
claves or sticks and hand drums) and follow
specific rhythms to accompany a simple song.
They will exchange instruments so they can
explore the different ways they are played and
the different sounds they produce.
