Modern Drummer Festival 2000 – Sunday

More than a performance video, this new release features four percussion powerhouses from the 2000 Modern Drummer Festival lineup. Japan's amazing export Akira Jimbo displays his incredible independence and command of many musical styles. Vastly talented Billy Ward (Robbie Robertson, Carly Simon, Bill Evans) performs two tracks from his Two Hands Clapping CD and talks about unconventional technique, developing a groove and more. Hilary Jones (Lee Ritenour, Dave Grusin, Robben Ford) plays a beautiful solo and discusses playing with a linear approach. Drummer's drummer Vinnie Colaiuta performs 3 songs (25+ minutes of music!) with his group Karizma – David Garfield, Michael Landau and Neil Stubenhaus. 90 minutes.
