Book Reviews of Advanced Theory of Tabla, Vol. 2 (The Complete Reference for Tabla)
Book Review: Basic reference for amateur composition
Summary: 5 Stars
Since health problems began to affect to my beloved tabla guru, i had been forced to continue my tabla training by myself...
By now i have not found another guru (Spain is a country with no tradition in this kind of instruments so...) and this book has become my best ally to go on playing this beautiful instrument.
It includes all the basic theory for an amateur tabla player to make his own compositions (and understand the professional ones), mainly focused into every cadential and cyclical form (Tihai, Gat, Rela, Mukhada, Peshkar, Mohara, Kaida...). But the content does not go very deep in each kind of compositional form.
The other part of the book are loose chapters with additional and varied content about tempo, bol dymanics, improvistion, acoustic physics of the tabla timbre, stagecraft recommendations to live perform and more.
Like the first volume of this series, this book also "travels" in my tabla bag anywhere i am going to play, specially if i am going to compose or perform with other musicians.
