What does the world look like to you post covid? To me, I sense a lot of fatigue as much as I sense a renewed inspiration. I notice a general anxiety, people dealing with mental health issues and uncertainty. I cannot help but witness how privileged I am in addition to many of the readers of this blog and how this pandemic has really affected a gross majority of people hailing from more economically difficult situations. How can we deal with these problems that are facing us today as we gradually step out and rebuild ourselves, our economy and society?
To me, the answer is the only way I know, I.E. Using rhythm and by focusing on community. It takes a tribe and even more so now. It is time we looked back at our lifestyles and changed our depleting and destructive ways. The future is about building connections, living sustainably and giving generously.
Deep within our collective cultural inheritance is an innate ability to be in sync with one another. And this is demonstrated in how we make music with people. Be it two people playing drums or a hundred piece orchestra perfectly synchronizing together, to ‘entrain’ (be together as one team) IS human nature.
Taal Inc. Drum Talks is an Online Session or (wherever possible) a Covid-Compliant In-Person Session. This session will draw from age old ensemble music making principles and make explicit some basic takeaways that will be tied in to very relevant behavioural competencies or concepts such as leadership, motivation, communication, team building Pune or group cohesion, mutual trust and more.
