Description

Welcome to 'Doumbek for Beginners'
This application will teach you how to play Arabic rhythms on the 'goblet drum'.
The 'goblet drum' is known by many different names: chalice drum, darbuka, debuka, Kratom, doumbek, dumbec, dumbeg, dumbelek, toumperleki, tablah.

The rhythms presented come from across the Arab world and have a deep and rich tradition.
The lessons presented in the application have been developed by Joseph Tayoun over the many years he has taught adults and children. Joseph has found that learning the rhythms in small 'phrases' helps speed the absorption of the rhythms. He has discovered that students who master a rhythm before mastering the technique enjoy playing, practising and discovering new rhythms far more.
This tutorial is comprised of two basic sections. 'Lessons' and 'Play Along'

The 'Lessons' section allows the student to learn a rhythm using Joseph's 'Phrase' approach and then as an entire rhythm.

The 'Break It Down' screen allows the student to learn the rhythm one 'Phrase' at a time.

The 'Play Along' screen allows the student to select among the available rhythms and hear them play continuously in either Joseph's voice pronouncing the syllables, or played on the drum. 'Play Along' screen is most useful once the student has learned the rhythms from the 'Lessons' section.

The Interactive screens provide activities where you will play in response to Joseph's drumming by filling in the missing beats of the rhythms. You will also get the chance to play “against” a partner and improvise a solo while Joseph plays an accompaniment.

The 'Improvise' screen plays a rhythm where you play along in the beginning, and then you play anything you want while being accompanied by Joseph playing the base beat. Use this to practice free-style embellishments. Joseph will keep the beat by “punching the ones” while you play anything that sounds good. Then join back in at the final beats. Experiment and have fun!

The 'Call and Answer' screen lets you play responses to Joseph's playing. Listen to Joseph play a piece then repeat it as closely as you can.

Test your knowledge of the rhythms by naming the rhythm being played in this multiple choice quiz section.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
