A Drummer's Dream

Nearly all the interviews are with the professionals. That's fine, since these guys are almost as good at talking as they are at smiling.

It's pure emotion. Drumming, for these masters of the instrument, is about communication, acceptance and, above all, deep love.

The most pleasant surprise here isn't just watching these masters perform their craft - though it is quite a treat - but rather how eloquent and thoughtful they are when discussing it: each and every one of them emphasizes the importance of simple hard work and lack of any catch-all technique or "secret" to what they do.
