    Djembe drum, 'Good Soul'

    This djembe drum is set to evoke the magical rhythms of Africa. Samuel Coleman carves the piece of local tweneboa wood while the goatskin drumhead is held in place with iron rods. Nylon netting surrounds the drum and helps adjust the pitch. Coleman names this drum "Krapa," which in the Akan dialect means "Good Soul."

    Samuel Coleman

    "I was born on November 24, 1974. I stayed with my mother and started schooling at the Methodist primary school in town. I then moved to where my father stays, to be with him and to continue my education. I therefore studied at the Swedru School of Business where I took General Arts as a subject. While I was there, I was very much involved in the school's cultural troupe and performed with them. Upon completion of the Swedru School, I was a bit stranded with no money to further my education at the university level. Due to my interest in all things cultural things, I then decided to get involved in artworks, especially carving - drums to be specific. I moved back with my mother and then went under a three year training period, and now I am a master training three boys in the art of drum-making."
