The World Beat Rhythms (WBR) interactive concert performance features Ed Roscetti & Maria Martinez, both critically acclaimed drummers, composers, authors, and educators. They combine a wide range of percussion instruments and drumset to perform an eclectic mix of hybrid compositions in a World Music setting.
WBR offers a five-piece ensemble made up of three multi-percussionists, a guitarist and a bassist. Chanting vocals are incorporated, adding layers of dynamic improvisation. Audience participation (voluntary) on shakers and hand drums provided by WBR always proves to be a favorite part of the show. This interaction offers an excellent opportunity for all music lovers – students, professionals, educators, and appreciators of all ages – to come together and explore communication through the language of the drum in a supportive and inspiring environment.
WBR is a unique celebration of rhythm, energy, and the joy of ensemble music.
