Description

Axel Schüler, who works as a lecturer for Latin percussion at the University for Music and Theatre in Leipzig, also leads numerous workshops and guest lectures at universities and academies. He gained his practical experience through his work with numerous percussion projects and salsa and Latin jazz bands (for example, with ‘Nyuto’, ‘Songo Azul’ feat. Santiago Nani Rodriguez (Cuba) and Luis ‘Betun’ Valiant in the BuenaVista Social Club).

After the publication of his book “Master of Percussion”, which includes a DVD, it was just a short step to make the DVD (102 minutes) a stand-alone teaching material with additional practice exercises. It follows the idea - “learn the rhythms and sounds by anticipating and imitating”.

Just like the book, the DVD is split up into five chapters corresponding to the main groups of instruments: congas, timbales, bongos and bongo-bell and small percussion. Chapter 5 also includes bonus material. In small, didactic learning steps the author explains the sounds, beating and playing techniques of the instruments e.g. floating hand techniques on the congas, circular playing techniques with maracas or switching between single instruments in different variations. Basic salsa and rumba patterns are played for each instrument, but there are also suggestions for variations and improvisations.

This DVD can be used as additional material for the book “Master of Percussion”, as it includes additional, illustrative material. However, the DVD also functions excellently as a stand-alone practice concept.
