Dennard draws on his 25+ years of experience playing with Dizzy Gillespie, Jaco Pastorius, Herbie Hancock, Maceo Parker, Gil Evans and Wayne Shorter for this 61-minute DVD instructional video. You get a full hour of drum clinics you can learn at your own pace and use all the abilities of DVDs (rewind, repeat and locate to specific sections etc.).

Co-author Matt Marvuglio and Dennard take you through lessons that include: singing and internalizing melody; melodic treatment of the drum set; aspects of solo performance; and the use of contrast, registration and orchestration.
