Music Education Through Gullah
RRP $86.95
The Gullah culture consists of African Americans who live in the Low-Country region of South Carolina and Georgia, which includes both the Coastal Plains and the Sea Islands. This book will outline the important contributions that Gullah has made in the areas of art, religion, agriculture, and music. For instance, in music, Africans' expression of improvisation and polyrhythm has been a continuing cultural influence in American music. This book contains music scores from original Gullah music.
In the American educational system, the music curriculum often focuses on the history and influence of European composers such as Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, and Mozart. When African American music is discussed, the curriculum is limited to jazz, blues, and rock and roll; however, recent studies have shown that African American music originated from Gullah music. This book will reveal and provide information about Gullah music and how it can be incorporated in public schools.

In this printed, paperback, mini-guide, I will give you my tips on making the most of your first festival slot. I have toured with bands and singers for more than 25 years, and work on loads of open-air, 'green-field' type festivals, such as Glastonbury, Roskilde, Coachella and Bonaroo, each summer. I know how bands can have a good show at a festival - and how they can mess up their chances by not being prepared for that all -important music festival slot. It is very important to your musical career that your festival appearances happen with no hitches, dramas or technical problems. Audiences go to music festivals to see and hear great bands.

There is so much competition at each festival, and every band has that once chance to ignite the crowd, even if they are a well-known and successful act. None of the bands can afford to be ill-prepared or leave things to chance. But you need not worry about any of that - you will hit the stage looking like a pro after reading this book!
