Rich is a master educator in the true spirit of teaching. His methodology is concise, organized, musical, and flows like a great arrangement. He teaches the “How and What” and clearly explains the “Why.” His concept of the 20th note bridges us to another musical dimension and will allow the participants to greatly expand their rhythmic consciousness. This book will scramble your brain in the best possible way!
