Book Reviews of The Music of Santeria: Traditional Rhythms of the Bata Drums (Performance in World Music Series)
Book Review: superb guide to cuban rhythms - INCLUDES CD
Summary: 5 Stars
I agree with everyone who loves this book, which combines the historical scholarship of Fernando Ortiz with careful transcriptions of New York-based bata drummers, including Jesus Perez, Julio Collazo, and Puntilla.
This book is all rhythms, marvelous if you are a drummer or other musician, do not get this if you are looking for a history of santeria.
This book DOES include the CD, which is indispensable for learning the rhythms. There is only one ISBN for the BOOK/CD set, which is 0-941677-70-2. If your copy doesn't contain the CD, return it for one that does, and do NOT buy the CD from dealers who try to sell it separately for as much as $200 on Amazon marketplace and elsewhere.
Happy drumming!
