Rainforest Workshop

The workshop videos are finally up. It breaks my heart to reduce the DVD quality video all the way down to 340 kbps and some to 150 kbps but it kills me to not share the sounds, or let you wait an eternity for the video to load on YouTube.

So here are the reduced quality video clips my friend Dony recorded during the afternoon workshop session. Three sessions were conducted simultaneously so we had to check out one after the other and linger at the ones we really liked.

For more browsing options, click on the playing video to go to my YouTube page. My collection of uploaded videos can be found in the 'More from this user' tab. Enjoy.

Oh, and one more thing; next year, be there!



Members of Inka Marka performing music from different regions of South America, songs from the Andes.

This is Richard Kensington of Mas Y Mas with Cajon magic.


These are members of Shannon showing how bodhrans and bones shake things up.


The percussions jam sessions



The jam session continues as leader Marek Kwandrans from Shannon leads individual instrument players, starting with Alexey Saryglar from Tuva Russia playing the duyug, then father and son outfit Tabuh Pak Ainal with the Ketabong and Sabang drums, followed by Hanitra of Tarika Be clutching the talking drum and a portion of Aseana Percussion Units's demo.


This is Shannon battling it out with Shooglenifty in the Celtic wars, who's the most celtic of them all... Shooglenifty can't wait to beat the crap out of their instruments and win the title.



Coming up next update, the concert videos.
