The Djembe Guide assumes no prior knowledge of the djembe, or of music, but guides the reader carefully on a deliberate course of learning, from first steps and simple exercises, through easy patterns for small groups, and on to playing genuine West-African multi-part rhythms in a drumming ensemble.
Rhythms and exercises are presented in a clear, easy to understand system, developed specially for this book, combining elements of oral tradition and simple tablature, so you don't have to read musical score.
It includes chapters on the background to this fascinating drum, and its recent rise to popularity outside the homelands of West Africa, and gives advice on finding, tuning, and maintaining a drum of your own.
The Djembe Guide is the product of five trips to West Africa, and more than twelve years of drumming experience by the author in community groups, performance groups, public classes, and in education. With its enclosed CD, simple tablature and profuse illustrations, The Djembe Guide really works to get you drumming, and is the next best thing to a personal tutor.
