RIYADH: Drumming is an important and popular part of cultural heritage in Najran, especially during holidays and special occasions. The art of playing the drums is considered one of the most famous and creative Najran dances and is the only one in which all vocal and movement arts are included.  Drummers begin collectively in a single straight row as they move in harmony to the beat of drums and tambourines while chanting.  The dancers then divide into two rows, one beating tambourines and the other the drums. At the same time, they chant poetic verses with a range of melodies and rhythms. Najran’s cultural dancers once again enthralled families and visitors during this year’s Eid Al-Adha celebrations, treating them to an exhilarating performance.
