Bodhran Tutor: Absolute Beginner's

Worse than useless. I would have given it less than one star if there was such a rating. Amazon really betrayed my trust on this one.The 'book' in this case is a half comic book size, center stapled, waste of dead tree. The first pages are dedicated to things anyone actually thinking of even buying a bodhran knows; the rest of the 'book' presupposes a knowledge of musical notation or experience. I have neither. Also, it repeatedly refers to the 'CD.' There was no CD. Total rip-off.

Very well organized and presentation for an instructional book.

I need something more visual. Would have been better for me with a DVD instead of a CD

Very disappointed. The book did not come with the CD that was supposed to be in it. I will try to return it.

Easy to follow instructions

excellent product

NONE

Just right for this beginner, who has many hours to practice and improve

For the most part very well organized and put together. My biggest concern is that it helps and explain how to read the notation, then on page 14 it expects me to know what he means with the hand on hand off part. This is a tad bit more technical and yet it is ignored and made for me to google or to guess and do it wrong.For a beginner book you should take the time to explain the skills needed.

It's a good book for a beginner like me. It did help me start playing the Bodhran.

This book has a grand 4 pages of how to play the bodhran. After which it is all musical score.Now I am a compleate beginner and would of appericateted a little more in depth instruction common mistakes ect. Oh and 32 pages is more of a leaflet in my estimation. The cd could explane a lot more it is just a record of the tracks. Overall very disappointed with this product but then i'm a ablsoute beginner!

very nice and helpful
