Rhythm Bones Workshop with Kafari

Prior to his performance on Saturday evening, Kafari will offer a FREE rhythm bones workshop at MSA for teens & adults.

The bones are an amazing vehicle for exploring the infinite universe of rhythm! They're portable, affordable - about $20 a pair at @ensoulmusic where Kafari buys his bones - an excellent rhythmic accompaniment at jam sessions, and you can play along to anything, making discoveries about feel, pocket, time, phrasing, and the music of different cultures.

Recommended ages 13+

Don't miss the performance Kafari: An Evening of Healing Sounds on Sunday, November 23 at 7:30-8:45 PM!

Saturday, November 23 at 2:00 PM, approximately 45 minutes

Tickets are available for FREE by donation ($5 suggested).
