The Sacred Frame Drumming of Women - Marla Leigh

The Power of Rhythm - A podcast by Reinhard Flatischler

Categories:

Marla Leigh continues the work of Layne Redmond (When the Drummers Were Women) and takes it to a whole new level. Her featured composition „Rhythms of Tof Miriam” goes back to the Exodus of the old testament: “Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a tambourine (called “Tof Miriam” or “Frame Drum”) in her hand, and all the women followed her with tambourines and dancing”. Marla's music contains the magic of long additive cycles - mysterious, yet easy to follow when you move with them. This episode celebrates the wisdom of female drumming.
