Drumming

Fruit Tree Tour
Performance | Tree Planting | Eco Hip Hop | Back to School Program

Common Vision brings enough drums for all the students in the workshop to play a variety of rhythms together.  In the drum group, facilitators bring to life the importance of communication, respect, and recognition of interconnectedness.  Students learn about traditional and contemporary cultures that use music and rhythms to celebrate seasonal cycles, to accompany farming work, and to remember that all people and animals share the common rhythm of the heartbeat.  The drumming group marks time for their classmates to pickax, plant, and transform their schoolyard.
