I've had several teachers ask me about activities for the Gathering Drum. Those of you who have been to my online or live training course know that I use this amazing instrument in every lesson, every week in 6 age groups.
I got to design this drum with the amazing Remo Belli himself, the innovator, pioneer and icon of the percussion world, founder and leader of Remo Drums! Remo visited Music Rhapsody several times and was incredibly supportive of my early childhood program. I miss him very much and think of him every day as we play his beautiful drums.
Check out my Five Little Monkeys, My River Boat, and A Sinking Ship orchestrated for the Gathering Drum.
