Afro Brazilian Percussion Guide No. 1 Introduction

An important cradle of Afro-Brazilian culture, Salvador Bahia occupies a central place in the history of Brazilian music, being home to musical styles that form the bedrock of much of today's popular sounds.  In this series of books, author Kirk Brundage takes the reader on a journey through musical styles ranging from sacred to contemporary, from African roots to today's Carnaval, and gives fascinating explanations of their historical context and practical information on playing the rhythms.  Awesome as both a resource and a training tool!
