The drum solo is one of the most exciting moments in belly dance. To the accompaniment of the doumbek drum, we will experiment with rhythms, alternative shimmy techniques, layering, isolations, level changes, traveling movements and finally, improvisation.
Let’s catch the rhythm of THE DRUM SOLO with Jaida and master percussionist Ossama Farouk! Together we will experience the nuances and dynamics of the music. Egyptian rhythms such as Maqsuum 4/4, Falaahii 2/4, Sai'idi 4/4, Sombati 4/4, Masmuudy 8/4, Baladi 4/4 , Malfuf 2/4, and Chiftitelli 8/4 will be covered.
