Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
Help me!!
I have been searching for a short, peppy little drum solo for my classes---something just about 2 minutes----give or take.
I feel like I've gone thru my entire music collection, and nothing seems
to be " it"! Does that make sense? Has that ever happened to anyone else?..c::
I am open to suggestions.........and HELP!!!..cr.:
Thanks!

Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
I lurve "Tabla Solo I" from Ya Bahaia - it clocks in at 2:31. If you go to the video clips page of my website, you can hear it in the most recent clip at the top left.

Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
There are two short ones (actually called Short Drum Solo, 2:16, and Very Short Drum Solo, 1:17) by Raquy and the Cavemen. I think they're available on iTunes.
A gift from Cairo has two short ones, clocking in at 1:04 and 1:48.
Bellydance for Fortune and Fame also has one that is 1:15 and one that is 2:05.
Issam's The Dancing Drum has a 1:18 and a 2:37 (my favorite).Last edited by nasila; 04-29-2009 at 01:15 AM.

short drum solo from Ya Bahaia
tabla Solo from the Jalilah Raks Sharki (1:44) is also great. It's what I use for my beginners choreo

I've used Sabla Tolo 1 on Hossam Ramzy's Faddah album. It's 2:02.

Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
I've had this problem too when looking for short drum solos, some great suggestions here.
The only ones I found were:
Tabla Plus (Dynamic Drum Solo) - from Belly Dance Fantasy - 2:04
Bediuns passion (Egyptian drum solo) - again from Belly Dance Fantasy - 2:13
Solo Nuria - from Drum Solo and Music for Oriental Dance - 2:11

I can't wait until I get home later and can sit down and find clips of these!
I've done Tabla Plus already---always been one of my favorites, and just perfect isn't it?
Keep 'em coming....I feel better laready....

There's a song called Drum Solo on the cd Fatouma-Bellydance Music and Songs(from IAMED) it's 2:32 minutes. I actually used this song for my first drum solo.

Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
I was also going to suggest Tabla Plus (Belly Dance Fantasy) and Solo Tabla 1 (Ya Bahaia). I learned choreos to both of those from Aziza, which automatically puts them in the fun & dynamic category. :) Of course there's also Sahra Saidi (there's a 2:40 version), another one I learned from Aziza.
"Beirut Rhythms" on Jalilah's Raks Sharki 6: In a Beirut Mood is nice. The intro is about 40 sec., which you could cut, and there's a little shimmy section at the end. And it's great that it's available for (legal) download!

Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
Some of Issam's drum solos are 2 minutes or less - Art of The Drum Solo CD has lots of short ones by him
05-01-2009 11:56 AM #13Re: Help! Looking for a good 2 minute-ish Drum Solo
There's one on Jillina's "Ya Jillina" - I think it's either Track 3 or 4 that's about two minutes long. It's simply called "Drum Solo."
