The drum’s centrality in sacred and popular music of cultures around the planet flows from the heartbeat of nature, a pulse that connects our traditions with the fluidity of the sea. Witness the rhythms of the sacred while rejoicing in the beauty of our shared cultural grounding. Each group—whether from Brazil, Japan, or downtown Manhattan—contributes to the centrality and essence of the global sacred experience we reflect as international communities. Aché!
Presented in association with the Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute.
