is designed to
give the drumset player a “birds eye view” of the Afro
Cuban drumming experience. If you’ve always wanted to get
into Latin styles, this is your chance! The attention to detail
is fantastic, and the layout and content of this DVD is an all out
learning breakthrough! Using two of the most popular styles of Afro-Cuban
music, players of every level can learn from the very beginning.
Start out by seeing and hearing the patterns played on the original
instruments then learn how to adapt everything on to the Drumset.
You get close ups and detailed explanations. Then you will cover
a topic rarely explored in Latin Instructional material - How to
apply these patterns in a rhythm section. By adding one percussionist
at a time, we see and hear the function of the drumset in Afro cuban
music!
As everyone knows, there is way more to this music than just patterns.
To really understand “The language of this music” you
will also see in action, one of the most innovative and well received
learning concepts in the Latin drumming community. Maturano’s
unique system for decoding the phrasing of all African descent music
called “RTS”.
“The latest PDF files!! – Left foot clave supplement” The DVD comes with a HUGE serving

"Left foot clave" exercises. These exercises have been featured in many of the worlds leading drum publications - "Drums and Percussion" Magazine

Phil Maturano's DVD is the most comprehensive and meticulously organized product on all
