by Mark BurrowsA General Music Success Story
In The Accidental Drum Circle, Mark Burrows shares how, with no more than two hand drum lessons to his credit, he put together a drum circle program that reached hundreds of elementary students. This humorous "quick read" addresses everything from how to arrange the instruments and students to the basics of drumming, to how to start a groove, to how to have a drum circle without drums, and dozens of topics in between. As Mark writes, the purpose of a drum circle is immediate - connect people through a shared musical experience that builds community while celebrating individuality. (Grades K-6)
