Recently, however, one of our Thursday night classmates, Melissa Galvez, a reporter for KUHF radio, did a feature on the class, called Drumming to an Ancient Beat. The feature aired on KUHF on April 16.
KUHF had recently done a feature on drumming as therapy for Parkinson's disease, and this was a followup story on the benefits of drumming. (I will find and post the link the Parkinson's story, too, if I can.)
Melissa recorded some clips of Abubakr and parts of the class and she interviewed a few students afterward.
You can hear and download the audio file and also read and print the transcript here:

Melissa did a fabulous job, even mentioning Temples Gate, the shop that hosts the class, http://www.templesgate.net in the lead-in and providing a link to Abubakr's web site, http://www.abubakr.info
Thanks, Melissa! (And thanks to KUHF for making the recording and transcript available on their web site.)
I hope this inspires other radio or TV reporters to do their own stories on the mental and physical health benefits of
drumming.
So please checke it out. I don't know how long features like this remain available on the KUHF web site. If you like it, download it while you can.
