the heart is the pulse of the body
the drum is the pulse of the soul
In yesterday’s harmonium lesson, our teacher brought along his tabla as an accompaniment. They really enhanced the lesson and we had so much fun!
I came across these videos which really bring out how potent the drumbeat can be:
Watch how this little boy’s fingers fly!
I dare you to listen to this without moving to the rhythm!
Women too!!
If only we could recognise
That we all move to different rhythms
Perhaps there would be peace in this world
Rhythm… such a beautiful and reassuring word… don’t you think? Thanks for sharing!

Dear Sonya,
Thank you for this very nice post! We are huge fans of world music. So much of world music involves drums, a very ancient instrument.
We like a lot this music you have shared today. So true…people move to different rhythms. The world would be bereft of beauty if there was no diversity of rhythms.
All good wishes,
robert
