"Scott is an astute observer and is artful at clearly breaking down the nuances of Brazilian percussion. In his new book, 'The Essential Pandeiro Method', he clearly demonstrates his step-by-step process to developing the fundamental skills needed to play the pandeiro in a highly musical and fluid way. I've practiced some of Scott's methods myself and I highly recommend this book for anyone serious about learning the wonderful art of playing pandeiro".
