2014 summer workshop classes: pages 3-5
World Music Drumming: Level 1
– SD, FL, TX, OH, NM, WI, VA, CO, MO, MA, OR, MB (may be repeated, *p.6)
For teachers, counselors, community recreation leaders, church musicians, and players who
would like to learn the basics of African and Caribbean drumming, singing, and moving.
This course is primarily based on the publication, World Music Drumming (Hal Leonard) by
Dr. Will Schmid (past president, NAfME; author). Participants will learn how to implement
and teach a course or an experience in World
Music Drumming. The Level 1 class assumes no
prior experience with drumming. Those with no
background and individuals with prior experience
(even trained percussionists) will benefit from
learning how the World Music Drumming
curriculum is approached from the very beginning.
Because drum ensembles, songs, and movement are
taught orally, teachers trained in notation often
experience a significant paradigm shift.
Level 1 Class
Daily classes include large group instruction, small
group interaction with guided microteaching/leading, and small group ensemble creation/ improvisation. You will learn how to
drum, sing, move, play xylophones and recorders, and teach and lead others. You will learn
how to integrate drumming into other school and life experiences, and you will also receive
supplemental songs and leader strategies not published in the original curriculum. Training
in West African and Caribbean dance will be offered at some locations.
World Music Drumming: Level 2
– FL, NM, WI, VA, MA, OR only (may be repeated, *see p.6)
For those who have taken Level 1 (or want to
repeat Level 2) and want some reinforcement for
the original World Music Drumming curriculum
plus lots of new ensembles, more songs,
movement, recorders (bring or purchase $33
Ghanaian flute— FL, WI, VA, MA only) and
xylophone ensembles. This course is based on a
review of World Music Drumming (Hal Leonard)
by Dr. Will Schmid, and supplementary
Sowah Mensah teaching the Gyil
book/CDs: More New Ensembles and Songs, and
Global Grooves (June, 2014), and music by the other faculty.

Participants will learn how to improve their teaching and
leading of World Music Drumming. Level 2 participants
will also share strategies and materials for using
WMDrumming in community contexts such as summer
workshops, spiritual settings, wellness, and recreation
experiences. Many participants take Level 2 four or more
times. The content expands and changes yearly – see p.6.
Lead Drumming w/ Josh Ryan
3
– FL, WI, VA only (may be repeated, *p.6)
For those who have taken Levels 1 and 2.
Course content includes drumming, singing,
and dancing from Ghana (Ga, Akan, Ewe
peoples), gyil xylophone ensembles from N.
Ghana, Ghanaian flute playing (bring or
purchase $33 Ghanaian flute–FL, WI, VA only)
and Caribbean (Cuba, etc.) drumming, singing.
The course content changes somewhat each year
and many participants repeat Level 3 for a
Adenkum gourd practice
lifetime — repeaters sign up for the “Latin
Drumming
Techniques” course title, *p.6 .

World Music Drumming: Level 3
Level 3 is taught by Sowah Mensah (Ghanaian Master
Drummer, Composer, Macalester College, MN) and
Josh Ryan (drumming from Ghana and Caribbean
specialist, Percussionist, Baldwin Wallace U., OH). The
WI Level 3 workshop is open only to those who have
had level 2 with Sowah Mensah at any location.
World Music Drumming:
curriculum update
– TX, MO only
photo by RPetersohn
NEW!
For teachers who have taken WMDrumming Level 1 and
want to broaden their competence with the WMDrumming
Curriculum. Participants learn fresh approaches to Ensembles
1-7 using newly created strategies and teaching materials.
The course includes additional songs, recordings, movement,
and related drum, xylophone and recorder ensembles from
supplementary sources such as the Peanut Butter Jam,
Beatbox, and Global Grooves (June, 2014) books/CDs.
Teachers will micro-teach ensembles different from those in
Share a drum
Level 1. Participants will also expand their cultural background
for the music studied. Colleague sharing of practical
classroom issues will include assessment, core
standards, discipline, and program planning, etc.
Faculty will consist of K-12 specialists with years of
experience in the WMDrumming Curriculum. See
workshop locations (pp. 9-11) for faculty at each site.

The Curriculum Update course is an optional course
that falls somewhere between WMDrumming Levels
1 and 2. After taking Level 1, you may either take
this course or go right to Level 2.
Kids, choir & Drums
– SD, WI only (may be repeated, *p.6)
(for teachers of singing and choirs in elementary, middle
school)

teachers of vocal music, including music educators, church youth
group leaders, and community group leaders. Individuals with all
levels of music instruction are welcome and previous drumming

gain background information on this fascinating music. Participants
will also learn about arranging and composing pieces for
performance, and the keys to creating a high-level performing group
Walt Hampton teaching

I am attending the Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, Workshop. This workshop is a
“resident workshop” where 95% of the participants stay at the Olympia Resort, and
commuters also eat all their meals on-site. The advantages of this “resident” site are the
sense of community that is built among the participants as well as the interchange of
ideas. We want all participants, including commuters, to be part of this community.

All WI workshop participants (including commuters) must choose one of the
housing/meals options below: All prices are per person for the entire week and
include all meals from Sunday dinner through Friday lunch as well as full use of the
Resort. Olympia Resort website: http://www.olympiaresort.com (Do not call them to
book a room; they will just refer you back to Music Workshops, Ltd. and this form.)
