Year 4 Samba Drumming
Over the past 8 weeks, the year 4 pupils have been working with Ollie from Northamptonshire Music and Performing Arts Trust (NMPAT) on how to play instruments used in a Samba Band. The main sections of a samba band consist of the Surdo drums, the Caixa/snare drums, the Tamborim, Ganza shakers, Agogo bells and the Repinique drum. On Thursday the children had the opportunity to showcase their new skills by performing to the school and their parents. They have loved learning something new and equally loved the chance to make as much noise as possible!
