BASIC DARBUKA RHYTHMS

Any series of lessons starts with learning hands position and writing down the main strikes, followed by the basic rhythms, which gradually become filled, then with the improvement of hands coordination and muscles relaxation the speed of playing increases.

At the moment we are working on a tutorial for beginners with all the rhythms and exercises for practising in the classroom and for self-study. So far, we have made a short selection of the main (but the most important!) rhythms and exercises for developing hands coordination and finger rapiditiy.
