DVD - Victor Wooten Groove Workshop

Two DVD set. In this over five-hour, 2-disc set, legendary bassist Victor Wooten redefines the essential elements of music and demonstrates how to apply them in fresh, creative, musically relevant ways. Traditional music education focuses on technique and "playing the right notes." Victor delves deeper and emphasizes the subtle and rarely taught aspects of music. Working with a masterclass of six bassists, he explores: notes, grooving, articulation, technique, emotion/feel, dynamics, rhythm/tempo, tone, phrasing, space/rest and listening. Victor's open approach will provide effective improvement to any player's musical skills. Also features several solo performances by Victor, and duets with bassist and educator Anthony Wellington. With subtitles in Spanish and German. 5 hours, 40 minutes.
