CMP is pleased to announce that it is the U.S. distributor for:

Método para la Enseñanza de la Percusión Latina
(Instruction Method for Latin Percussion)

by

Roberto Vizcaino Guillot

  Quite simply the finest book of its kind ever published, this is Vizcaino's master work.

     El Método is the key to Roberto's playing secrets. The conga chapters include 1- and 2-drum technical exercises, improvisations, popular and contemporary rhythms, and rumba. The timbale chapters include technical exercises, popular and contemporary rhythms, improvisations, and tons of breaks.
     The last third of the book contains the best of Vizcaino's concert works for Latin Percussion. In these pieces he has raised the genre to a new level, writing complex compositions worthy of the recital hall. They include the duets, Soneando and Soneando 3, and the trio Soneando 1, and the solo works,Para Ella, Timba Son, and A Cuatro Congas. If you've ever wondered what, exactly, Roberto plays in his amazing solos, you will find the answers here.
     Lastly, El Método comes with 2 CDs. The first covers almost every exercise and rhythm in the book. The second contains recordings of Vizcaino playing his amazing concert works. They are recordings of the master at his prime.
