The Kusun cultural immersion does not end in class. Students are taught the historical and cultural significance of the music and are given a rare opportunity to meet some of the musicians and dancers who have played significant roles in shaping traditional music and who have either composed new rhythms and dances or have heavily influenced the music being played today. Watch them perform, learn how the rhythms evolved, gain an invaluable understanding of the historical context of the rhythms you learn. In the evenings, enjoy performances held in various locations around Nungua, involving the participation of the local community. The evening entertainment is designed to present the incredible variety of music and dance as well as allowing the students to see and hear the rhythms and music they learn in their lessons.
Rooms are comfortable equipped with single or double beds with a bathroom and toilet in each room.
All rooms have fans and are serviced every day. Arrangements can be made for laundry. The proceeds from the tour directly benefit the local community who are employed for the duration of the tour and also go towards maintaining the centre. A long term goal of Ray and Tettey is to use the centre for various community projects. Participants will learn the traditional rhythms which will be demonstrated in performance style by the ensemble and then broken down in to their component parts so that students can get a full and clear understanding of how all the parts fit together.
