 "One of my most important mentors has been the legendary drummer and educator, Joe Morello. Most of the technical concepts in this instructional course are based in his teachings. Joe, in turn, studied with George Lawrence Stone, the author of the famed instructional text, Stick Control, and many of HIS teachings are based in Mr. Stone’s concepts. I also refer to some of my other teachers; Mel Lewis, Bob Moses, Ed Soph, Airto Moreira, Jack De Johnnette. In reality, this course is a tribute to these great teachers, and my interpretation of their concepts."
 Gottlieb's Master Class for the Modern Jazz Drummer covers a comprehensive range of tips, techniques and insight across its 117 minutes of video instruction. Intermediate to advanced drummers will be exposed to dozens of methods for holding the sticks, working with brushes, hi-hat and bass drum techniques, and best approaches for nailing jazz, rock, swing, Latin and Brazilian rhythms. Gottlieb has prepared dozens of exercises with practice audio tracks along with point-by-point study tips and a text guide.
