HANDS Drumming Festival 2009

Highlights of the festival are performances by these same groups, as well as Kencana Putra, a traditional Malay drumming group; Deafbeat from the YMCA and drummers from several schools under HANDS tutelage. Having various drumming troupes participate, each with its own experience makes it a great way to share, and to learn skills and knowledge, for both participants and contributors alike.

Moreover, having different groups of people together will create ‘sparks’ which will ignite into a wonderful fun learning experience for all concerned. We hope this first festival of ours will set a trend for our ever challenging art form.

《鼓宴》

六月鼓艺节，让生活来场万花鼓宴！

宇宙欠缺空气，即使大爆炸也宁静无音；

地球上的我们，这个六月可热闹了！

手集团零九年重头好戏，

以鼓声击破天际线，

如星球相互撞击生化成光热轰隆的彩烟；

唤醒所有沉睡的灵魂，

共鸣、共感、共舞、共戏、共观。

手集团，因敲击认清自己，和万物对话多年，

在六月酝酿一场鼓艺大爆炸！

一场由鼓艺文化调理的盛饌，

集各方鼓团精髓，

融华、巫、印三族文化，

召各路鼓艺好手，

以敲击交流相互切磋，

以鼓乐韵律相互和旋，

以文化深层相互成长，

每一个表演、工作坊及交流，

就是要让你靠近鼓，触摸鼓，听到鼓。

我们大摆鼓的饗宴，

要你一起来大吃、大喝、大乐！！！
