About event
We invite you to a unique workshop where you will learn the basics of playing the darbuka - a traditional drum that is the heart of the music of the Middle East, North Africa and the Balkans.
Darbuka (also known as doumbek or tabla) is a percussion instrument with a specific cup shape that creates a dynamic and expressive sound - from deep tones to sharp beats. It is ideal for beginners who want to discover the beauty of rhythm and get a new musical experience without previous experience.
When? 26/10/2025 (Saturday)
Time: 11:00 - 15:00 (4 hours)
Where? Martinčekova 2, Bratislava
Price: €60/4 hours
The workshop is suitable for complete beginners who have no experience playing the darbuk, but also for those who already have experience but want to deepen their basics.
In the first trimester, you will learn the three main beats (dum, tek, ke) and all important oriental rhythms such as: ayub, zaar, saudi, khaleegy, semre, malfuf, wahda sarira, karachi,tayr, vox, fellahi, waltz, samai darag, maksum, baladi, masmudi saghir, saidi, dabka, wahda kabira, wahda tawila, zaffa, jerk, 5/4 rhythm, morocco, dor hindi, arabic andalusian, masmudi kabir, masmudi et tawil, masmudi be khems, chiftetelli, hagalla, kashlamar, roman, dokkus sekkis, samai takil.
You will get a clear table of rhythms.
