Getting Started on Drums

Featuring world-renowned drummer, solo artist, author and educator Tommy Igoe, the Getting Started on Drums series is an entertaining and educational way for beginning drummers to learn the right way to play - right from the start. Geared toward the complete novice, the Setting Up! instructional video covers unpacking your new drums; the bass drum; the bass drum pedal; rack tom-toms; floor tom-toms; the snare drum; the hi-hat; the "power square"; cymbals and stands; the final "tune-up;" and more. 65 minutes. A drummer since the age of 2, Tommy Igoe has toured and recorded with artists such as Lauryn Hill, Stanley Jordan, Art Gunfunkel and many others. A first-call musician in the New York studio-recording scene, Tommy continues to perform the drumset parts he created for the hit Broadway musical The Lion King.
