Nora Thiele’s GLOBAL GROOVE teaching concept combines knowledge from different rhythm cultures around the world. The focus is on training rhythmic precision, a sense of sound and stylistic diversity. We work with the Indian rhythm language Solkattu, movement and frame drums. On the third day, the focus is on rhythmic improvisation on your own instrument (please bring along).
