More About My Bell Technique

More bell
The technique I developed on bells to obtain certain embellishments comes from natural effects of relaxed movements. The first thing is to avoid the eight bit sound quality too many people seem to take for a standard. An african bell should not sound like a pen on a desk!

DJEMBESOLO - Online Course
31/March/2019 Filed in News
FINALLY !
Twenty years ago I wrote a (big) book about the djembe. But I was half convinced it was the support I wanted. At least not alone. Then I thought about making DVDs. It seemed to be better, but again I didn’t believe enough in it to pursue. And now here am I in 2019, completely enjoying the technology we can use nowadays. I just launched a new website focused on my teaching today. djembesolo.com...

Skype Lessons

FINALLY!
I have been asked to give lessons on Skype for some time but I was skeptical at first. Then I used it while working on the Samuel l Jackson challenge to communicate with some musicians and I found it very convenient. So I picked a platform to handle bookings and payments, then organized a dedicated audio/video system and finally launched the service this last January (2019). I really enjoy it and the student feedback is excellent.

For all of us who have an urgent question to solve, I cannot think of a more experienced teacher than him.

NEVER FORGET TO TAKE A BREAK
I was working for hours on my future djembesolo online school. The topic was about sounds, all sort of sounds. At one moment I had the good idea to just play around to refresh my mind.
