You are a good teacher, too many people go too fast and are more concerned with showing off their own chops rather than helping students have success. For me the art of teaching is ALL about your students success, understanding THEIR needs and meeting them. If your own emotional and psychological needs are constantly seeking to be met, you can't teach effectively, compassionately or artfully. Thank you.

Thanks! Yes this vocal percussion language is known as Solkattu in South India. The syllables are referred to in North India as Bols.

I just found you and really love your teaching style. I look forward to watching your other videos. I do not understand the "ta ki ta ta ki ta ki ta di mi" part, however. I have seen others vocalizing the strokes with ta ka ki dum pa, but I cannot wrap my head around this other way because I do not understand the connection between the syllables and the strokes. It just confuses me, so I have to try to ignore them. I am very new, so that is part of the problem.

Hi Tamie, thanks for your comment. The additional solkattu syllables relate to the rhythm pattern as an “entity” with its own shape (3+3+2), separate from the drum syllables themselves. But as I watch this video again, I see how it could be confusing. Feel free to ignore!

Hello sir. Before ordaining as a Buddhist monk seven years ago I spent my life as a tap dancer so rhythm is natural to me. Now, once again in lock down I am interested in learning to play a frame drum or bongo of some kind played without sticks. I just found your videos and love them. They are clear and well presented not to mention your own talent and knowledge which is most evident. In searching on line to buy a frame drum I see that there are many types made up of various skins etc. would you be able to recommend the best drum. I would rather buy an expensive, good quality that will last than buy one where the skin will stretch or loosen etc. I appreciate any advice you offer. Wishing you every good thing in life. Sincerely Aren

Hello Aren, thanks for your kind words! My advice in choosing a reliable frame drum is to choose one with some type of tuning mechanism. Also, I prefer to use synthetic drum heads instead of animal skin, as the tuning tends to be more stable and consistent. Cooperman drums are my first choice, for quality and sound. There are more affordable options (from Meinl and Remo) as well. Happy drumming! Stay tuned to this channel as I have a number of new lesson videos to share!

mostly "learned" to play frame drum from play along cd's, i know the sounds and how to make them on my drum but i know almost nothing about the tablature and how to create my own rhythms. i enjoy playing for trance and meditation, wanting to start an online or irl framedrum circle. any advice would be much appreciated thanks.

True, it's tuned quite low in this video! It sounds like a C to me, although I usually keep this drum (an 18" Cooperman tar) tuned between D and E.

So if my ring finger will just not snap without pause and concentrating, do I keep struggling to "get there" or go with the very doable middle finger? Down the road will this affect play? Great tutorial!
@kenshorley

Hi Lee! My philosophy is always to start with what's possible. So if the snap on the middle finger is doable, do that! Yes you can also build up strength in your ring finger, but don't worry about that now. Have fun!
