Eva Buckman

African Percussion,

Directing African choirs

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She is a true multi-talent! In the music and singing school in Heidelberg Eva Buckman is not only flute teacher, but for some years now also head of the existing African choirs Mokolé and Mokoyaala. In 2009 due to popular demand she founded the Mokosheela choir and one year later the project choir Mokolela that rehearses once a month on Saturdays. Eva Buckman is not only a musician with heart and soul - in addition to the flute she masters a variety of percussion instruments - at the same time she is an extremely talented organizer of all activities that are required to make her African choral concerts over and over again a crowd puller.
