Peter says, “I’m very happy to announce an updated version of a favorite book of mine, “The Drum Perspective,” now titled “Jazz Drumming Perspectives.” While some things never change, music has grown up a bit since I first penned the “Perspective” back in the late 1990s. I like to think that I’ve grown up a bit as well. Combining timeless with timely points of view, all of them under the watchful eye of editor Rick Mattingly, “Jazz Drumming Perspectives” is meant to be an enjoyable learning tool for drummers as well as for people who simply like the drums.
