so this experience has been composite again. and, thats the best part, I got them on the hook, they want a follow up. now that they know how rich this material is, they want to get through to the real music...

i'm glad that you got the participants excited for more. good luck with your next advanced-level workshop.

I think these terms are only useful when trying to group people of a similar level. To that extent it's always relative. Levels in "advanced" classes at the various drum festivals vary as a function of who's at the festival.

Let's face it, to even play a basic accompaniment beautifully with nice sounds is more advanced than most non-africans can manage!
