John
McLaughlin/S.Ganesh Vinayakram Gateway to
Rhythm
Konokol is the universal system of mastering rhythm without drums.
Guitar legend John McLaughlin, who has advocated this system of
learning rhythm for over 30 years, brings it all together with
Konokol master Selvaganesh Vinayakram, one of the foremost
percussionists from India. Divided into 6 chapters, the student
moves from basic understanding of rhythm into the wonderful world of
improvisation. Exercises are explained and demonstrated followed by
improvisations which include all the exercise material of that
particular chapter. You will learn through this course how to
improvise rhythmically and how this system can help in your
compositions. Following this, John McLaughlin explains and
demonstrates on the guitar the benefit Konokol has had on his
improvisations, and its usefulness in his compositions over the past
30 years.
