Book Cover
We finally figured it out! A way to quickly teach djembe rhythms to everyone (left and right handers) regardless of ability, age, or native language.
Our Drummin' Buddies Hand Charts is a full-color book containing 39 hand drumming patterns. Each pattern or rhythm is shown with pictures rather than written notation. It’s like drumming with the right brain. Just follow the pictures, which show where to place your hands, and you'll be able to play any rhythm quickly and easily.

This book has been proven to work with children, adults, special needs populations and international students. The book includes right and left handed versions of each rhythm and  audio samples on the accompanying CD.  It doesn’t get any easier than this. Just play it.


$35

Parents:

When I am in a room with children and musical instruments, I see a magic, even more than the music, happen.  Children learn to listen and share. The do not share an adult’s concern for the ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to play. They experiment, discover, listen, watch others, create, rest, wonder-what-will-happen-if-they-do-this….  you know, play.  They take turns experimenting with leadership and support roles. They combine and reduce instrument groupings to express their voices that moment, in that situation. In this environment, music is never static or redundant, but creative and dynamic.  Created in and for the moment!

This is a great introduction to the love affair of music.  The most important quality needed, before formal music education begins, is the love of playing music.
