Afro-Caribbean and Brazilian Rhythms for the Drums

Learn about the wonderfully rich music which is derived from the fusion of the cultures of West Africa, Europe, and the indigenous Indian cultures of the Caribbean region with this book and CD pack. Most of the rhythms presented here have evolved from their original multiple percussion origins, and have been applied to the drum set. For each style sample or exercise, the CD contains a performance demo and then a version without the drums for playing along. For students wanting to be well rounded, well trained musicians, this publication provides the information and exercises that will give them a strong musical foundation in these important genres.
