In the next play-along section, you can play along at varying tempos, practicing the solo...or create one of your own...all backed by the supporting djembe and dunun parts. The "Solo Origineux" are traditional solos that go with a particular rhythm. Think of them as building blocks that you can cut-and-paste in creating your own solos. Or, think of them as a jazz head that you play at the beginning of the tune, and then use as themes in the solo sections. The solos have lots of rolls and phrases that fit perfectly with the other drums, and most importantly, with the dancers' steps. Once you have the building blocks, you'll be able to apply these techniques to other rhythms or even other instruments like Quinto, Bongos, or Timbales. NEW LOWER PRICE!
