Dumbek Retreat w/ Carmine Guida, Mystic CT May 13

Registrations is now commenced for the dumbek retreat and hafla with Carmine Guida at the DragonŐs Egg in Mystic Conn. On Saturday, May 13th.

Gather at 12noon on Saturday for an afternoon intensive of workshops.

In the evening the dancers will join in for a dance party! It will be a potluck hafla.

There are limited accommodations for crashing. So register early to guarantee a bed. The retreat ends at noon on Sunday.

I have had the privilege to study and play with Carmine a number of times. He is a great dumbek player, and an accomplished musician as well as a generous, patient instructor. Plus he is a great guy! For these reasons I have brought him up to The Dragon's Egg to be our resident dumbek guru! Also as Carmine has said: You learn so much when you are just hanging out and jamming.

Space is limited and the buzz for this event is building fast! To be fair, your space is reserved when I receive your check/money order. Email me to reserve your spot and get further instructions.

$60 for the full dumbek retreat, includes workshops, hafla, overnight accommodations.
Just the workshops $30

Hafla $5 plus dish to share.

Contact Kevin asap to confirm your place. drummerspath@yahoo.com
