Congolese masterclass guitarist, Niwel Tsumbu

Ever dreamed of following in the footsteps of esteemed slide-guitarist Debashish Bhattacharya or tub-thumping with the class and revolutionary rhythmic zeal of Tony Allen? Perhaps the myriad languages of world music have always seemed too intimidating, impenetrable, the levels of musicianship required out of reach.

Well, be deterred no longer. The World Music Method offers a fresh, exciting and innovative way of understanding the mechanics of global tropes – the disparate tones, timbres and rhythms – providing direct access to vast pools of expert guidance, while breaking down the barriers surrounding the various idioms of world music.

Whether it’s developing an in-depth understanding of African bass with World Music Method founder Edd Bateman, delving into the origins of desert blues guitar with Justin Adams or mastering Congolese drum-kit rhythms with Felix Ngindu, World Music Method offers a wealth of online masterclasses enabling rookies and more experienced musicians alike to enhance their repertoire.
