what are djembers? (sorry if mispelt)

but anyway, you should be really proud of the 4yr old and 2yr old, they are really really good!

the 4yr old amazes me beyond belief, to think at such a young age he is so talented, and seems so mature.

congratulations!

tell him that i reckon he is just the best

The videos you have are inspiring. I bought djembes from Ghana; I love movement of music anywhere in the world.

It is inspiring to see a four year with such talent---I can't wait to follow up on him when he gets older and starts touring with his talent.

God bless. Thank you for the videos. They are helping me learn more about the djembe.
