Tales of Griot (Young Audiences)

March 20, 2018

Atumpan tells the stories and plays the instruments of West Africa in this amazing performance of Tales of the Griot. After one of your students is crowned Chief of the village, the fun really begins.  Atumpan teaches the importance of the drum as a means of communication in African villages, as well as the role of the storyteller in African society. These performing storytellers will have students participating in call and response and traditional African drum rhythms.
