Join Seneke Sillah from Mbilla Arts for a free, hands-on introduction to West African drumming at Westminster Music Library. No musical experience is needed, so this is a relaxed chance to try out the rhythms and make music together.
Seneke was born in The Gambia and began playing sabar drums as a teenager, later learning djembe from master drummers, including the late Thomas Camara from Guinea. He has been teaching and performing in London since moving to the UK in 2004, and co-founded Mbilla Arts in 2006. He has more than 15 years' experience leading African drumming workshops in corporate, education and community settings.
