Yimsik Asses (Hold Me a Rhythm)
Many of you dumbek
players who have seen the Messengers perform lately have been begging me to you
the solo part to “Yimsik Asess” the piece I composed for the Messengers on
returning from Egypt last year.
So here it is! Have a ball!
It’s best if
someone is holding a fast maksum under the solo.
