Drum Instruction Book - The Basic Technique Of Rudimental Drumming

A drum instruction book for training beginners in the basic sticking combinations and coordinations drummers use. It explains rudiment breakdowns, lead hand switch importance and the articulation of accents to interior notes. The book expands from the basic four patterns (Double Stroke Roll, Single Stroke Roll, Parradiddles & Flams) into Ruff-Rat-Drag and consecutive roll patterns with studies of accented singles, Swiss rudiments, complex flam work and buzz rudiments later in he manual. All of the page long performance exercises are written to improve the left hand lead. Large accent arm motions are recommended as they teach coordination batter and faster than only a wrist technique. Competitive drum & bugle corps and band circuits make use of these methods.
