John Riley's Art of Bop Drumming













I hope you all had a nice Easter weekend and, despite the extraordinary circumstances that our planet currently faces, you are keeping your head up. Onwards and Upwards! To quote the mayor of Calgary, Alberta (Canada), Mayor Naheed Nenshi offers this motto in these challenging times: "Clean hands, clear heads and open hearts!"

Thanks to the nice people over at the Avedis Zildjian Company, John Riley offers this brilliant series of mini-lessons that cover a variety of topics and expand on his seminal jazz drumming text, The Art of Bop Drumming.

John is an accomplished and dynamic player and an educator who's knowledge of jazz drumming is matched by his extraordinary ability to breakdown and explain even the most complicated of concepts.
