The CAJÓN 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 CAJÓN BOOK covers five major topics:- basics - fundamentals & tips- sound & movements- grooves & styles- special sounds & add-ons- techniques & phrasingAlthough the CAJÓN 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 cajón '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.
