Location :
Beautiful IYH Ranch Hostel at Vashon Island, WA
Descriptioin :
This is a special opportunity to intensively study Indian Tabla drumming in a
very unique and personal setting.
Come experience complex rhythms, Tabla compositions from various Gharanas and
much more with a Tabla virtuoso om New Delhi, India.
Camp will involve learning with Vishal (spending full days talking about and
playing tabla) practicing in long sessions with fellow Tabla players/students
and also watching videos and discussing various aspects of playing and
performances.
Accommodations:
In response to feedback from last years participants, students will set up their
own tents on the Hostel grounds at no extra cost. This will afford everyone a bit more privacy
and helps
keep costs down as well.
Note: A well equipped Kitchen will be available for cooking along with a common
refrigerator.
Camp fee:
$250, (including Hostel usage fees)
Optional Meal Plan:
Catered vegetarian meals (8 meals in 3 days of Camp) will be provided for an
additional $80, by Gusto Girls Catering. We highly recommend that you choose
this
option, as it will enable us to remain focused on practice and learning
avoiding long forays into Vashon town.
