World Percussionist Tom Teasley-L.P. DJEMBE, REMO DOUMBEK, SABIAN CYMBALS WITH FOOT PATTERN SOLO

This is one of the combination solos from my forthcoming DVD, "An American Approach To World Percussion".

An American Approach to World Percussion offers Western-trained percussionists a systematic approach from which to draw on their experience as drumset players and rudimental performers, and to apply that knowledge to a variety of world percussion instruments. Applications for djembe, doumbek, tambourines, shakers and more are combined with four-part coordination. In addition, techniques are frequently interchanged among instruments to demonstrate the commonality of approaches. While this is not a substitute for traditional study of these instruments, An American Approach to World Percussion is a comprehensive study of world percussion from an American jazz perspective. It should also broaden the horizons of those already familiar with traditional applications of these instruments by offering a jazz sensibility.

I’d love to hear from you and if you purchase a copy I’m very interested in how you may use it in your studies and expand on it with your own experiences. It’s available on my site as well as through Alfred Publishing.

These examples present hybrid techniques inspired by my years of study of world percussion, drumset, and classical percussion. As always I welcome your comments and thank you for checking out my work.
