Editor's Pick:
Practical Applications seeks to bring the student of Afro-Caribbean music a better understanding of the applications of these rhythms on the drums set. Afro-Caribbean rhythms like mambo, 6/8 rhythms, samba, songo, and others can give the serious percussion student a great command of the language of the rhythm. Also, there is so much here in Practical Applications that can instruct you in the art of drumset artistry. The concept of coordination (sometimes referred to as independence) can be thoroughly addressed by studying these rhythms and how they apply to the drum set. Your actual grooves will develop in character and quality because the rhythms you are studying are rich in these important concepts. The rhythms will find their way into your playing, whether that playing is in rock, jazz, Latin, funk, or other styles. And development of all limbs will be enhanced, mainly because you will learn how to use all four limbs to emulate percussion instruments. Your "weak" hand will be developed and strengthened as you learn cowbell or tamborim patterns.
The best way to begin the study of these rhythms is with a brief history of each rhythm, provided for you in each section of this book. Of course, there are other sources of historical information, and this author suggests you delve a little deeper into this information because it can help you better understand the rhythmic and cultural roots of this wonderful music.
