Kaleidoscope VI: HANDS International Drumming Festival - “Thunder”

From humble beginnings of school grounds rehearsal spaces and rented instruments, the HANDS Percussion group grew to be critically acclaimed performers, and also a crowd favourite at both local and international stages. Founded 25 years ago by Bernard Goh, the team have weathered some storms these past couple of years, but are back with a literal bang, and are building back even better than before. They are set to present Kaleidoscope VI  - Hands International Drumming Festival "Thunder" this October, and we find out all about it from Bernard, who is also the artistic director of HANDS Percussion.
