Drumsongs CD

DRUMSONGS CD All Percussion
A favorite of dancers and teachers

"Armando gives us rhythmic melodies...against which to dance our hearts out..." Ma*Shuqa Mira Murjan, Los Gatos, Ca.
Mafufo's first solo recording of original compositions using traditional Middle Eastern rhythms continues to captivate dancers and teachers; this is rhythm as music to dance to. Armando plays these original pieces with dumbeks, defs, bendirs, bells, and a variety of unlikely percussion toys.
