This introduces not only the music, but also the people and the places that the music comes from – including fun facts, geographical information, cultural and social context, helpful maps and imagery.

12 rhythms from around the world
Two rhythms each from countries in Africa, Australasia Oceania, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. With each country you are given a core rhythm, followed by a three-part arrangement featuring the core rhythm. Each tune is also graded for difficulty so you can measure your progress as you go. Support your learning with online audio and video content, taking your lessons to the next level. Watch and play along with Andy using the video performances of every tune or use the audio clips of each separate part (with metronome intro) as a handy reference when learning and teaching the rhythms.
An innovative, accessible notation system
The notation system, developed by Percussion Plus, makes this book easy to understand for a variety of learners and a joy to teach from. It combines standard western notation with symbols for the bass, tone, and slap which demonstrates how to play the drum. This marries perfectly with the SLAP Djembes that have the bass, tone, and slap symbols printed on the head of the drum, but can be used with any djembe or similar drum.
What makes a good performance?
The 'Making a performance' chapter answers just this by taking through the stages of a djembe performance with tips and tricks along the way so you can create amazing music while having fun too! This is in addition to Andy's performance notes which are specific pieces of advice for each rhythm, included throughout the book.
