Diwali Rhythms
Deeptarka Mukhopadhyay (Dips) from Tabla with Dips will be conducting an interactive experience with Indian rhythm as part of the Diwali Open Sunday celebrations.
The session will focus on the tabla drum and introduce India’s classical system of counting beats. We will aim to create a unique beat with all the participants, and end with an open celebration, allowing participants to dance to the infectious sounds of the dhol drum.
