What is a Drum Circle?
- A drum circle is any group of people playing hand-drums and percussion instruments in a circle, or similar format to create in-the-moment music. They can range in size from a handful of players to a circle with hundreds of participants. The drum circle is led by a facilitator who guides the group through various rhythms and rhythm-based activities. A drum circle is highly interactive and does not require any prior musical knowledge by the participants. Because each group is different, each rhythm-based musical experience is unique.
