- Chuck_(Charles)_Spano abstract "Chuck (Charles) Spano is a Florida-based improvisational percussionist.Spano is especially known for his experimentation with unusual rhythms and time signatures, and unusual or indigenous instruments. and is a proponent of "simple" or found percussive instrumentation. He is also a proponent of cross-/polyrhythms and when playing with other capable musicians you can often hear him introduce contrasting but complementary polyrhytms, especially when playing bodhran or washboard. He teaches simple percussive techniques to a wide range of students from young elementary age students to those in their 80s and above. He is primarily a hand percussionist though he also investigates and uses, where appropriate, current technology digital devices such as Alternate Mode and Roland percussive products.Spano teaches various percussion workshops at festivals and special events and, depending on the festival, may offer workshops on bodhran, simple percussion techniques, introduction to hand percussion and percussive washboard, and develops workshops specific to the needs of the sponsoring organization or event.Spano's focus at the present time (2010–2011) is on the bodhran (Celtic frame drum) and a specialized highly percussive washboard style wherein he plays a full-size or double washboard with thimbles on all five fingers of both hands, often using a bone china thimble on one or two fingers of each hand - he incorporates the use of various board-mounted tone blocks or alternative metal surfaces to aid in tonal differentiation. His own mentor on the bodhran is a multi-time All-Ireland champion whom he visits regularly for continued development.Spano still plays fairly regularly at festivals and can be found playing with a variety of groups across a diverse mix of genres including Celtic, classical, rock 'n roll, old time, new age, bluegrass, jazz, country, reggae and blues. He often plays with half a dozen or more groups during a festival. His normal performance instruments are typically custom made or of his own manufacture with bodhrans from Scotland, Ireland, and Germany, cajons/djembes made to his specification in Canada; frattoirs and triangles for Cajun music made in Louisiana. His washboards are exclusively Nationals and may include zinc, porcelain enameled, brass, glass, and wood versions. He won the first place award in rhythm/percussion for 2010–2011 in Florida Old Time Music.He can also be found playing with various street musician groups along the east coast[citation needed] - he says that the street musicians offer him the ultimate in improvisational challenges as they are all new and unfamiliar musicians with different interpretations of the music being played and who often/usually play their own/new music which provides him with the ultimate challenge in adapting his percussive talents to a tune which will only be played once.Spano is also highly involved with the development and presentation of the musical component of various festivals, principally in Florida, including Celtic, Blues, and Contemporary Americana events.".
