Product Description
This DVD is the first instructional drum method to fully explain the theory and expertly demonstrate the techniques for adapting authentic Latin rhythms to the modern drumset. The remastered DVD begins with a discussion of the evolution and adaptation of Afro-Cuban percussion instruments to the drumset. Maturano shows how fundamental Mambo and Cha-Cha styles are played by the Afro-Cuban rhythm section. Then the drummer isolates each element of the ensemble allowing viewers to see and hear the patterns played on the original instruments. Finally Maturano illustrates the proper way to adapt each instrument s sound and rhythm to the drumset.System Requirements:Running Time: 131 minsFormat: DVD AUDIO Genre: MUSIC DVD/MUSIC VIDEOS UPC: 884088203320 Manufacturer No: HDDVDPM21

 Great Video but beware: PAL format April 15, 2008
This is a great instructional video but beware. This DVD is actually in PAL format. It will only play if you have a DVD player that can handle both PAL and NTSC formats (multisystem). The player also needs to be region free. The box didn't say what format it was in so it was pain to figure out the problem.
I have 4 DVD players (Sony, Pioneer, jWin, and a Toshiba 7" portable). It will only play on the portable Toshiba and the jWin (which is, ironically, a really cheap $30 model). On the Toshiba 7" LCD screen the picture is fine. But on a regular set, the picture quality isn't that good because of the PAL conversion.
Otherwise, the actual content is fantastic and the instructional method first-rate. The PAL format is the only thing that kept me from leaving 5 stars especially when it's listed here on Amazon as being NTSC.
 Very Helpful February 2, 2008
This video shows various Latin Percussion Paterns (cascara, clave, etc)
and then most importantly,shows how to apply them to drumset.
Excelent. Watch it. Then be prepared to practice it.
