Hands on Learning with Master Musicians
From the mysterious prayer bowls of Tibet to the fiery tabla drums of India, from the haunting shakahachi flute of Japan to the bellowing didjeridu of Australia's Aboriginals, the diverse musical sounds of the world come alive to young ears when introduced first hand by the masters from these traditions.
Since 1995, Door Dog Music Productions has been offering a variety of educational programs for youth, from experiential hands on learning from master musicians through our World Music In-Schools program, to professional performing opportunities through our Youth for Youth World Music & Arts Fest, as well as cross-cultural music exchanges with distinguished guest masters through our Artist Residencies.
Door Dog also provides educational opportunities for the community at large through our
Master Lectures, which gives a closer look at unique music traditions from distinct regions
of the world and Performance Workshops, which allows audiences to learn and try unusual
instruments with master artists, from the Aboriginal didgeridoo or Indian
tabla to the Cretan lyra or the Persian tar, to name a few.
