Raquy Danziger is a world class doumbek player and has written four instructional books, the latest entitled Dumbek Fever IV. She currently resides in Istanbul, Turkey where she runs an instructional office with master drummer Bunyamin Olguncan.

Rami El-Aasser teaches and plays arabic percussion from classical to folk with groups like Alsarah and The Nubatones, Zikrayat, and at NYC’s live music Haflas.

Chef Rami has provided beats and beets at every NY retreat since 1999.

Special guests Marla Leigh (March 14 -18) and Shane Shanahan [Silk Road Project] (March 20 - 23) will be in attendance to give instruction on the art of frame drumming.

Middle eastern hand drumming is becoming popular all around the globe. A primary instrument is a goblet shaped drum called by many names including dumbek, darbuka, or tabla. The lack of instructional materials for westerners inspired Ms. Danziger to study this instrument and create a notation system for its easy notation and transmission.
