29th Jul 2010  13:36

Families planning a summer getaway in a Cornwall holiday cottage can dance to an African beat next month.

The Master Drummers of Africa will be performing at Hall for Cornwall in Truro on 14th August.

Ghanaian Lord Eric Sugumugu established the group in 1975, which brings together ten drummers from ten African nations to create a unique spectacle.

The drumming orchestra uses over 100 ethnic drums to produce fantastically infectious rhythms which are sure to get crowds on their feet.

Guests will be able to hear tracks from the group's current album, The Master Drummers of Africa, Volume II, including Hamba, Men of Men and The River

Representing over 300 tribes of Africa and drawing inspiration from over 3,000 years of tribal music, the troupe embodies traditional African music.

Tickets are still available for the event priced between £14 and £16.
