The adventures of writer Newt Scamander in New York's secret community of witches and wizards seventy years before Harry Potter reads his book in school.

Director: David Yates
Writers: J.K. Rowling
Stars: Eddie Redmayne, Ezra Miller, Colin Farrell


Further info...
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a 2001 book written by British author J. K. Rowling (under the pseudonym of the fictitious author Newt Scamander) about the magical creatures in the Harry Potter universe. It purports to be Harry Potter's copy of the textbook of the same name mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (or Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the US), the first novel of the Harry Potter series. It includes several notes inside it supposedly handwritten by Harry, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, detailing their own experiences with some of the beasts described, and including in-jokes relating to the original series.

In a 2001 interview with publisher Scholastic, Rowling stated that she chose the subject of magical creatures because it was a fun topic for which she had already developed a lot of information in earlier books. Rowling's name does not appear on the cover of the book, the work being credited under the pseudonym "Newt Scamander", who, in the books, wrote this textbook as seen on Harry's supply list for his first year.

The book benefits the charity Comic Relief. Over 80% of the cover price of each book sold goes directly to poor children in various places around the world. According to Comic Relief, sales from this book and its companion Quidditch Through the Ages have raised over £17 million.

On 12 September 2013, Warner Bros. and Rowling announced they will be producing a film inspired by the book, being the first in a series of five such films. Rowling herself will be the screenwriter. She came up with a plan for a movie after Warner Bros. suggested the idea. The story will feature Newt Scamander as a main character and will be set in New York City, 70 years before Harry's story started. The film will be released on the 18th November 2016.

This workshop presents a direct, hands on approach to learning rhythm. Actual in class group drumming will be the practice and basis for these lessons. Dizzy Gillespie, one of the fathers of modern jazz / bebop taught these exact rhythms and techniques to his band members so that they could accompany him better. This is not common knowledge taught in schools, but was handed down to Adam from Mike Longo, Dizzy's former pianist. Most musicians attempt to "feel" rhythm. This approach is actually scientific, and shows HOW to practice grooves.
