GBWusic Concept for the New Percussionist (Engelska) 4/4 och 12/8

Allmänt

Percussionist Gijs Anders van Straalen presents an innovative new percussion book, Concept for the New Percussionist, 4/4 & 12/8. For the last twenty years, he's been recording percussion practice routines for himself and his students, because it was often difficult and even impossible to find specific information. The result is an innovative method that tackles topics such as rhythmic structures, techniques, independence and timing. The book isn't just for percussionists; drummers can learn a lot from this method too.

Concept for the New Percussionist, 4/4 & 12/8

Concept for the New Percussionist 4/4 & 12/8 is geared specifically toward advanced and professional players who have a background in more traditional genres such as Latin, Brazilian or West African music, and who want to translate their ideas, grooves and sounds to jazz, improv, pop and other genres. The system is comprised of both simple and advanced rhythmic structures, music styles and techniques in the time signatures 4/4 and 12/8.

Room for your own interpretation

The book leaves plenty of room for the musician to interpret it to fit their own ideas. It gives the student the freedom to put the study materials together in their own way and to interpret it differently for any given instrument. As you can imagine, that makes it the book that keeps on giving, as there's always something new to glean from it. Gijs gives tips and advice on a wide range of percussion instruments, including hand drums, cajon, udu, pandeiro and many more.

Musician and photographer Rory Ronde has provided a wide range of instrument photographs for the book.
