Matt Philipzen Cajon Book: For Newcomers, Intermediate Players & Pros: Including Audio CD & 65 Online Videos, Book & DVD with Online Videos

Matt Philipzen’s Cajon Book is the author’s most comprehensive cajon method to date, and is aimed at cajon newcomers, intermediate players, and pro drummers and percussionists. The focus is on the cajon as a drum set replacement. The Cajon Book answers the following burning questions:
- How do I transfer drum rhythms to the cajon?
- How do I transfer traditional and modern patterns to the cajon and use them in my music?
- Which stroke techniques best serve dynamic playing?
- How can I accompany songs on the cajon?
- Which accessories help me make my sound interesting and authentic with additional sounds and playing possibilities?
The i>Cajon Book covers five major topics:
- basics: fundamentals & tips
- sound & movements
- grooves & styles
- special sounds & add-ons
- techniques & phrasing.
Although the i>Cajon Book is not explicitly aimed at cajon beginners, it still covers preliminary knowledge regarding basic playing techniques and notation for those who want to learn how to play the cajon from scratch and who do not count reading music among their strengths. This approach is further supported by the online videos and CD play-alongs included in this package. We hope you enjoy discovering, practicing and implementing the many patterns, grooves, and techniques in Matt Philipzen’s Cajon Book.
