This is part one of the Kuku solo techniques shown here with the small ensemble with Wade Peterson on ballet style dununs (aka “djundjun” or “dundun”) , Ben Isaacs on support djembe and MIchael Pluznick on lead or solo djembe. Please check back soon for many more djembe solo lessons for Kuku and many other rhythms as well as breaks downs of all the drum parts as well as “how to play” all the parts in most Guinee and Mali style West African rhythm arrangements and compositions.
