Damascus Kafumbe brings the music of the drums from Uganda to the Carolina Music Museum and, using instruments that for centuries have struck the delicate balance between kinship, clanship and kingship, he gives us a glimpse into how music and storytelling tunes this ancient kingdom and brings and sustains balance to all three. Not to be missed, the drums, rhythms and music won’t be forgotten. Call 864.520.8807 for tickets. $15 for adults, $5 for students.

Where? The Carolina Music Museum, where else? Friday night, October 12, at 7:30 PM! Who is this keyboard magician? Michael Tsalka, Dr. Tsalka, if you want to be formal, but he won’t care, he’s a world spirit and it would difficult to name a country where this Dutch/Israeli virtuoso hasn’t played. Michael is keeping the program secret, but it is entirely possible that he’ll move from piano to piano, piano to forte piano, forte piano to harpsichord–he’s a master of them all. Add a sense of humor, a big smile, and just the sheer joy of making music and you are in for a very special evening. Get your tickets in advance by calling the museum at 864-520-8807. $15 for adults, $5 for students (with ID’s)!
