Tommy Igoe Vic Firth Presents Groove Essentials 2.0 : Book, CD, DVD combo pack

Description

(DVD). The second one volume of the most efficient-selling original Groove Essentials features a DVD and companion book/CD package with 53 brand new grooves and over 100 variations for intermediate to advanced players. Students will learn the difference between ghost and grace notes (at the same time as being encouraged to experiment with both in all six groove “families”) in addition to important “go-to” grooves, like the Train and Bo-Diddley beats. For more advanced players and professionals, GE 2.0 introduces the concepts of groove construction, interpretation and manipulation- training drummers to think like musicians in an effort to maximize their full potential. The DVD features more than 70 new songs covering 4/4, 2/2, 6/8 and 3/4 time signatures, with three levels of difficulty for 5/4, 7/8 and 9/8 meters. On the 3-hour, 45-minute DVD, Igoe discusses and demonstrates each groove in more than one tempos, alone and with a band, with many patterns shown on both acoustic and on Roland HD-1 and TD-9 electronic drumkits. The grooves span rock, funk, R&B/hip-hop, jazz (sticks and brushes), world/specialty, extreme tempos, all-purpose, hybrid, rideless, classic and unusual-meters. The companion play-Along book and CD contain over 90 tracks, including every song from the DVD in their full-length versions, minus the drums; allowing drummers to expand their skills by playing any of the grooves with a band and recording themselves on audio or video (optional) to helpfacilitate the learning process. These tracks also supply numerous fill-in and soloing opportunities to challenge advanced players. In addition, the book features Igoe’s extended “global tours” so as to test even the most seasoned professional’s chops, creativity and stamina and, as a “first of its kind” bonus, there’s a full-length orchestral play-along track designed to provide a taste of playing in a full orchestra, complete with more than one moving tempos, dynamics and feels.
