Rating: - Perfect for all ages and levels of expertise
I've played set drums for 20 years and wanted to expand my capabilities to include hand drums. I found this method to be incredibly well-structured. It gave me what I need to add congas to my professional show. At the same time, it is perfect for my 10-year-old students and everyone in between. The method shows all the basic techniques in easy to understand demonstration form. It provides a solid foundation while leaving room for the player to find their own sounds. Sager adds a touch of personal warmth and caring that make this method uniquely engaging. I heartily recommend it to anyone who wants to have fun while learning.
Rating: - Surprisingly liberating
I've never been a drummer nor particularly musical but once I took a class from Jill I knew I'd found something surprisingly liberating and exciting. This book/DVD combo is a fantastic opportunity to have fun in a new kind of way. At this price it also makes a memorable and affordable gift for someone. Jill has brought together musicianship, psychological health, and community building in a completely accessible way. Quite a package that should be in every family's library.
Rating: - The best beginning hand drumming DVD/Book in the market
This DVD/Book combo is the best product I have seen in the market to learn about hand drumming. It is fun, interactive and really easy to follow, and you don't need to have any previous knowledge about music.
I totally recommend it to everybody who wants to learn hand drumming in a fun and interactive way.
Besides you can use this product with your family and friends, a really cool way to spend time together, and do something different that everybody can enjoy, no matter what age they are.
