One is from Europe and the other is from Africa;

The former pursues the contemporary, the latter integrates the tradition;

When the European handpan pioneer David Kuckhermann meets the West African Drum Band Jammala, what kind of sound will it arouse? Will they strike sparks off each other? 

The Long Museum (West Bund) will bring you answers on December 2.

On December 2, the top German percussionist David Kuckhermann will present a master class for friends who love music. At the event, David will talk to Jammala, the earliest established West African Mandingo Drum Band, and will have in-depth discussion on percussion, jazz, world music, etc., and share interesting stories and insights about playing music.

The two parties will also show off their skills through the ensemble of the 21st century pioneer percussion instrument HANG resembling a UFO and the traditional African drum DJEMBE, the collision of metal and wood.
