Graf-Martinez' popular manual on playing the rumba is now available with a CD-ROM that allows you to view both the score and the guitarist's hands at full or slow tempos. You can loop passages for intensive practice, de-activate either the solo or accompanying guitars for more focused practice.... The program is further enhanced by footage of live Flamenco performances and views of Andalusian landscapes and daily life. The book contains many photographs of the hands to help you get the right hand moves and sounds, and five nice compositions in various rumba styles: French Gipsy style (Manitas, Gipsy Kings, etc.), Moorish flavored (Zambraish Tango-Rumba), a Brazilian inspired Colombiana, one in a Caribbean Afro-Cuban style, and a typical Flamenco Rumba, all in notation and Tab. 92 pages. German/English. The 2 accompanying CD's allow you to hear and play along with the full ensemble, or take the lead yourself in playing the compositions in the book. All quite thorough and well-presented.
