Approaching ambidexterity

Like most people, drummers are typically either right- or left-handed. In playing, the dominant hand leads while the other plays the backseat and fills in around what the dominant hand is doing. The goal of this book is to give drummers the ability to lead comfortably with either hand, lead referring to the hand most likely to crash a cymbal on the downbeat. The exercises in this book are designed to help drummers become comfortable switching the roles of each hand when playing in any style, opening new possibilities in performance. Notation for the exercises reflects both the normal and opposite styles in two connected staves, with notation for opposite-style passages written in the upper staff Mel Bay

Bembe conversations bk/cd

Welcome to the rhythm Bembe! This book/CD set is a self-study method designed to reveal the beautiful music that has been developed and maintained in Cuban culture. This is accomplished through reading, interpreting percussion charts, and interacting with a series of audio recordings and exercises which concentrates on the drum, percussion, and vocal parts of the rhythm Bembe. While working through the progressive exercises and charts, you will begin to understand rhythms with a triplet swing, in other words, rhythms in multiples of three beats. In traditional Bembe, the supporting drums tend to remain rhythmically fixed, not deviating from a basic pattern. Also, traditional Bembe usually incorporates only a single mid-range support drum. In this lesson, some of the artistic license has been applied to these traditional aspects, adding a second mid-range drum to the ensemble, and expanding on the basic dialogues maintained between the supporting drums. Course objectives, a bibliography, and an extensive glossary are included making this an invaluable resource for any percussionist. CD included. Mel Bay
