Alfred Music Publishing Partners With Drum Channel to Present Two New DVDs

Alfred Music Publishing is excited to announce its partnership with Drum Channel as the exclusive distributor of two phenomenal drumming DVDs: Buddy Rich Up Close and The Evolution of Tony Royster Jr. In 1982, Buddy Rich filmed three shows over three days at the Statler Hotel in New York. They were never aired—in fact, never edited. This masterpiece is in pristine condition and will be released on Drum Channel as The Buddy Rich Show—coming soon. Buddy Rich: Up Close (http://www.alfred.com/alfredweb/front/ProductDetail.aspx?itemnum=8845011025&pubnum=93) , is a special edit of The Buddy Rich Show, spotlighting six songs with as many cameras as possible focusing on Buddy and his incredible drumming technique. Not only can you view the show's main edit, but you will also get three different versions of audio as well as a slow motion version! Titles: Love for Sale; Bugle Call Rag; West Side Story; Birdland; Greensleeves; Dancing Men. Buddy Rich: Up Close DVD is now available for $19.95. Tony Royster Jr. has evolved from a world-renown child prodigy to high-profile professional touring drummer. Continuing to stretch boundaries and break barriers with his seemingly effortless chops and creativity, The Evolution of Tony Royster Jr. (http://www.alfred.com/alfredweb/front/ProductDetail.aspx?itemnum=DV10001201&pubnum=93) provides a unique insight to Tony's evolutional journey as he performs with mentor Dennis Chambers, drumming legend Terry Bozzio, and his latest project ASAP, providing you with a glimpse inside Tony's world as he goes back to the streets of Atlanta where it all began with rare footage of his childhood and dozens of never-before-seen interviews. Plus, get plenty of behind-the-scenes footage, bonus features, and so much more. The Evolution of Tony Royster Jr. is an inspirational, mind-blowing drumming adventure that's a must-see for every drummer. The Evolution of Tony Royster Jr. DVD is now available for $29.95.
