A non-religious celebration of the time of year between Thanksgiving and New Year’s with Drums, Songs & Stories. With multicultural respect for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and the Solstice, the dominant theme is about gratitude and giving, daring to live your dreams, as well as anticipating and celebrating the return of the light…
Like all my Drum SongStory programs it works just as well for adults as it does for children. And is ideally suited to mixed audiences of all ages.
With The exception of The Silkie and Children of the Drum I have not yet recorded most of these pieces. Hopefully that will change soon!
