Beginner Djembe Lesson.
A step by step lesson on how to play the West African Djembe drum. Includes basic tones, positions, how to sit and more.
Jim Donovan was a founding member and driving force of the multi-platinum band Rusted Root from 1990-2005. Donovan studied and played African rhythms with various master drummers such as Congolese master drummer Elie Kihonia and Mamady Keita. He also studied African Music with noted scholar Kwabena Nketia from Ghana. He has researched traditional African music for over 20 years via performance, readings and field recordings.
The dundunba isn't the heart of the rhythm, that is the job of the sangban. Also, these are not called djun-djuns. The are dunduns or dununs. It is incorrect to call them djun-djuns.
