Drawing from the concept of Travelling Through the Tropical Rainforest, this performance follows the journey of an individual as they discover the wonders and intricacies of folk drumming. Just as the artwork invites viewers to see and appreciate the beauty around them, the performance reflects on the Singaporean diaspora and the often-unnoticed richness of our cultural heritage.
Powerful and theatrical, this performance blends rhythm, movement and melody to create an engaging narrative. This journey highlights the intricate rhythms and textures of ethnic percussion while showing the harmony between nature and humanity.
Ethnoverse is the percussion wing of Flame of the Forest, founded by Govin Tan. Dedicated to showcasing the richness of different percussion traditions, Ethnoverse brings together drums and rhythms from different cultures to create powerful, engaging and meaningful performances.
