A revolutionary addition to drum education, this DVD set presents the method created and used by internationally-acclaimed drummer Benny Greb to develop his awe-inspiring creativity, musicality and technique that raises the art of drumming to an entirely new level.
As Greb explains, learning to play the drums is like learning to speak a language. Knowing a few basic drum beats and fills is like knowing only a few standard phrases in a language; they won’t allow you to communicate clearly or have a full, interactive conversation in practical situations.
Greb then introduces his revolutionary 24-character system and shows how to use the basic binary and ternary rhythms to develop timing, technique, dynamic control and speed… even the traditional drum rudiments. Covering hands and feet, with and without a practice pad, he quickly progresses from simple alphabetical exercises to more intricate examples of words (rhythmic phrases) and syntax (sentences and vocabulary) on the full drumset.
The second disc goes on to include a vast amount of additional information, from practical discussions about the importance of listening, building fills and solos using standard improvisational forms, and developing better time and expanding rhythmic comfort zones through creative use of a metronome to somewhat more esoteric examples of finding new and alternative sounds on the drumset.
This double-DVD also features several drum solos as well as Greb’s performances with master percussionist Pete Lockett and the Benny Greb Brass Band plus a wealth of bonus material. Recommended for all drummers (from beginners to professionals) and drum teachers.
