Drum Circles

Taxonomy Code: PS-8200.5000-170

Programs that provide organized opportunities for people to participate in a drum circle, i.e., a group of individuals gathered into a circle for the purpose of making music with percussion instruments. Included are culturally-oriented drumming circles, facilitated circles and improvised communal drumming groups (anarchic circles) with no designated musical leader. The goal of many musicians in culturally-oriented circles is preservation and transmission of culture in a relatively traditional form in addition to making good music, while the focus of other circles is on connection and communication among participants and having fun playing together. Some circles, such as the Shamanic drum circle in Native culture, focus primarily on the spiritual rather than the musical experience.
