DRUM CIRCLE
(DUMBEG)
Dumbeg is an hour-glass shaped drum with lamb skin at one side, and an open end at the other side. The body of the dumbeg is constructed of either metal or clay. It is played with hands & fingers while on the lap or between the knees. The Dumbeg is played by Armenians from the Middle East.
Grab a dumbeg and join in the beat at our outdoor drum circle.
ARMENIAN FOLK DANCING
The Armenian dance heritage has
been one of the oldest, richest and
most varied in the Near East. From
the fifth to the third millennia B.C.,
in the higher regions of Armenia there are rock paintings of scenes of country dancing. Traditional dancing is still popular among Armenians, and has also been very successfully 'exported' to international folk dance groups and circle dance groups all over the world. People feel something special in Armenian dances, and in the passion, subtlety, and eloquence
which they embody.
