Music of Africa

African traditional music has long maintained its deep, rich roots as well as its melodies, rhythms, and the unique storehouse of knowledge maintained by those who continue to carry on its traditions.

We offer individual and group music classes for all ages and levels. Also, we sometimes hold cultural events which combine interaction with the artists and musical performances.
