Afro Brazilian Percussion Workshops
Since 1997, Brazilian percussionist Claudio Kron has been delivering workshops and school projects across the UK. He brings a wide range of authentic Brazilian percussion instruments to introduce students to their first steps in samba, or to help deepen the skills of those already studying it.
Step-by-step, Claudio energizes children with lively stories about Brazil, its music, and its deep connections to African culture.
Using a selection of instruments—including surdos, pandeiros, tamborims, and agogôs—he recreates the rhythms and grooves from his early years growing up in Bahia, located in the Northeast of Brazil.
