I invited two other sections of the building to come for a large drum circle and it turned out well. The residents get a choice of drums and percussion instruments and they play along to various songs. The theme this time was Native American because November is the month to celebrate that heritage. It is a change of pace and allows the residents to be a part of the music in a much different way than singing along.
Afterwards, the performer taught a small class for those interested in performing their own drum circles and it gave me a lot of food for thought in regards to an activity I already do. It is something I never expected to be doing, but the new ideas he gave us actually have me excited.
