Peter Magadini polyrhythms drum lesson in Chicago may be considered a drum clinic, however, for the most part, it is a clinic for all musicians interested in the topic. “The Chicago Polyrhythm Clinic” hopefully will define the true art of performing in “parallel rhythms” while at the same time Peter Magadini is breaking down “polyrhythms” and “polymeters” that helps explain how “polyrhythms” work in the most logical way.
