Sorry, this book is out of stock

By Bill Matthews

Great reference for hand drum technique and notation for Djembes, Congas, and ashikos. These rhythms contain what we believe are the underlying musical principles found in most African and Afro-Caribbean music. Some have been named after their musical contexts. All the rhythms in The New Conga Joy are displayed in an easy-to-read box notation system. As a bonus, Bill gives us bell and clave patterns, as well as tuning charts for congas, ashikos and djembes.
