        THE BRISTOL DRUMJAM

        Looking over the shoulder of the lead drummer at the evening drumjam, with a view of a few of the many dancers in the 30-minute-long performance.













        In the foreground, three of the handdrummers who accompanied the two main kettledrum players. There were at least fourteen drummers in the entire set!

        The lead drummer and his partner pounding out the rhythm as the performance swings into a fast and wild beat.








        Looking past the handdrummers at the dancers in the circle. At far left is our Master of Ceremonies, dancing to the music while wearing a black vest--despite the sweltering Summer heat and humidity!

        Now you can listen to the Bristol Drumjam. Just click on the "REAL" icon to hear a short sound clip which Ryleh recorded during the Saturday and Sunday performances.
