The Accidental Drum Circle Mark Burrows.
In The Accidental Drum Circle, Mark Burrows shares how, with no more
than two hand drum lessons, he put together a drum circle program that
reached hundreds of elementary students. This humorous "quick read"
addresses everything from how to arrange the instruments and students, to
the basics of proper drumming, how to start a groove, and how to have a
drum circle without drums. According to Mark, the purpose of drum circle is
immediate—connect people through a shared musical experience that builds
community while celebrating individuality.
