The advanced workshop in Afro-Brazilian Percussion with Dudu Tucci in September 2006 will begin the group of Raízes do Brasil, with altogether 360 hours of lessons, spread out over a period of two and half years.

This course in Afro-Brazilian percussion, unique in Scandinavia, is designed for participants who want to be intensely involved with Brazilian percussion. Requirements for participation are foremost passion for the music and staying power, not necessarily skills already acquired. Percussionists who have until now had no experience with Brazilian music are also welcome. Participants will bring skills and playing experience on different instruments to the workshop, so the basic techniques and rhythms for each instrument will be covered first.

A high level of learning develops through the intensity of the workshop, the participants’ growing together into a real group, and the practice sessions between the workshop blocks.This structure also offers the individual the opportunity to focus on what he/she prefers.Besides the instruments of the Bateria, there will be a particular emphasis on the conga and pandeiro.

The goal of the advanced workshop is to enable the participants to teach and lead their own groups. For this reason the Master Class workshop will directly follow this advanced workshop.The workshop will be held in english.
