Learn to play doumbek (dumbek, darbuka) with New York's most beloved Arabic percussionist, the master instructor, the one and only Amir Naoum!
If you are a beginning drummer, this DVD will serve as a very accessible, friendly and solid introduction to the art of Middle Eastern percussion.
If you are a dancer, Amir Naoum's clear introduction to the most popular bellydance rhythms and their more subtle variations will help you learn to recognize the rhythms, even in their most sophisticated forms.
Born in Syria and raised in Lebanon, Amir Naoum has played in NYC Arabic clubs, for family celebrations and bellydance shows for over 30 years. He has contributed generously to the success of most New York star bellydancers and Middle Eastern percussionists. Amir's method of teaching Middle Eastern rhythms and doumbek technique have helped many dancers and drummers take their first steps toward understanding Middle Eastern rhythms, and develop toward higher levels of musicality and doumbek playing technique. Amir is known for his warm, welcoming, encouraging teaching style and for helping dancers at every level of skill do their best in performance.
This program is a beginner-level doumbek instructional course with a lot of beyond-the-basics information and spectacular demonstrations of Middle Eastern drumming and dance rhythms.

Summary: Doumbek!
Comment: This is a cool DVD--the instructor starts with very simple rhythms and gets more advanced. Great for dancers and drummers! It was a little confusing at times for me when he was playing the drum, speaking the rhythms and they were written out on the screen as well. It seemed like a bit chaotic, especially when he would throw in variations. But some people learn better that way--so overall, I would recommend this!

Summary: great video, i recommend it
Comment: I'm a music teacher in San Francisco, I relaly enjoyed this video, it's definately old school teaching method, but he is very sweet and gives lots of great rhythms and excercises and plays them long enough for you to get it.
