Written by Ianto Thornber, this tutor is for beginners and intermediate groups.
It provides page after page of photos, exercises and information. Learn about the djembe in Africa, its cultural position, and how it became a drum of the world.
The beginner will learn the playing positions and basic strokes. The intermediate drummer will enjoy the twelve West African multi-part rhythms.
The book also provides a well illustrated section on care and tuning of your djembe. A number of photographs from West Africa are used throughout the book, adding interest to the text.
We recommend this as an excellent book for any student of music. This 1999 issue has been revised and updated for 2005; published by Need to Know, Leeds England.
