Hudson Music was founded in 1998 by co-owners Paul Siegel and Rob Wallis. In creating Hudson Music, Rob and Paul continued a tradition of providing superb quality video and audio products for music instruction and entertainment (which they had previously started in founding DCI Music Video in 1982). In the years since Hudson came into being, they have expanded their catalog to include DVDs, books and audio CDs, and are beginning to blend the use of each of these offerings into a “complete” multi-media approach to instruction. This system offers teachers and students an integrated system that combines educational DVDs with companion books and CDs with play-alongs, printable exercises and audio examples, online content, and more. Hal Leonard has been a proud distributor of Hudson Music products since 1999. In this brochure, you’ll find a wide selection of Hudson’s newest and best-selling DVDs, books, and CDs.

    Aquiles Priester – Those Who Appreciate My Work Expect Some Kind of Didactic Material to Be Released from Time to Time

    1. In your busy life as a musician you've found time to realize methods and DVDs. What prompted you to dedicate time to their achievement? Aquiles Priester – Those who appreciate my work expect some kind of didactic material to be released from time to time. I’m in no hurry to do many things so as to have a vast catalogue. My greatest concern is to maintain a high level of quality in everything I do. Come to think of it, free time is something that doesn’t exist, but if you want to go ahead in your care er, you have to make time to realize the things that are important and at the right time. 2. Your last instructional DVD (The Infallible Reason Of My Freak Drumming), is very practical with regard to the division of chapters. Did you choose this subdivision by yourself? Aquiles – Yes, I produced the DVD myself and it was based on things that I always studied. Everything I learned with Kiko Freitas at the time when I studied with him is included in the DVD. This goes beyond the exercises themselves because I’m talking about the conception of the work. Many people comment that the way in which the DVD is presented is very good and that makes me very happy. This DVD was released worldwide by Mel Bay Publishing and in 2011 was considered 3rd best instructional DVD of the year according to readers of Modern Drummer magazine . 3. How long did it take to complete it? Aquiles – I did a long pre-production, almost 15 days recording and rehearsing the whole script during 8 hours daily alone on a farm.

    by Mike Haid hen Drummers Collective proprietors Paul Siegel and Rob Wallis began Wvideotaping master classes with high- profile drummers at their New York City music school in 1982, they had no idea that this bold move into the modern age of VHS tape recording would spiral into an internationally successful multimedia business, establishing them as the pre- eminent drum-video gurus of the industry. One could argue that this dynamic duo of drumming education is just as responsible for the advance- ment of the art of drumming as many of the innov- ative players they’ve painstakingly archived over their nearly thirty-year partnership. In 2000, Modern Drummer magazine honored Siegel and Wallis with an Editors’ AchievementPaiste: Tradition, Innovation, And Family Values Award, “in recognition of outstanding contribu- tion to the drum/percussion community.” In 2001, the Percussive Arts Society presented them with the President’s Achievement Award. In 2009, they celebrated ten years at the helm of their most recent successful venture, the award-winning drum instructional multimedia company Hudson Music.

  • AQUILES PRIESTER Considered Best Brazilian Heavy Metal Drummer For

    AQUILES PRIESTER Considered Best Brazilian Heavy Metal Drummer For

    AQUILES PRIESTER Considered best Brazilian heavy metal drummer for twelve years in a row by main specialized magazines and sites, in 2011 Aquiles Priester was the only Brazilian in the history of Brazilian drumming to rank 5th best Prog Metal drummer of the world according to American Modern Drummer magazine next to names such as Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Gavin Harrison and Marco Minnemann. Aquiles Priester has already done more than 350 drum clinics in various countries and took part of the biggest drum festivals around the world such as Modern Drummer Festival (United States), Montreal Drum Fest (Canada), Batuka! International Drum Fest (Brazil), La Rioja Festival (Spain), Laguna Drum Fest (Mexico), London Drum Show and Drummer Live (England), International Summer Drum Camp (France), Thomas Lang’s Big Drum Bonanza (United States), Frankfurt Musikmesse (Germany) and Namm Show (United States). Born in South Africa, he moved to Brazil while still a child, spending his childhood and part of his adolescence in Foz do Iguaçu, a city in the state of Paraná. In 1988 he moved to Porto Alegre and in 1997 he founded heavy metal band Hangar where he began developing the style that would make him known worldwide. With Hangar he released five studio albums, an acoustic CD and a live acoustic DVD. The first parallel project while still with the band Hangar were some gigs with Tritone in 1999, a kind of Brazilian G3 with Edu Ardanuy, Frank Solari and Serj Buss. Soon after Aquiles was invited to record and go on tour with Paul Di’Anno, former Iron Maiden singer.
