A Simple Approach. Par MAT MARUCCI. The drum rudiments are the language of drummers. They are to us what scales and chords are to the other instruments. Understanding the rudiments allows the drummer to communicate with other drummers and also have the ability to interpret terminology and rhythms that are so often seen in music and music publications. This book is designed for drummers of all levels who would like knowledge of the snare drum rudiments but haven't had the advantage of studying them formally. It is a quick, simple approach that can be learned by any drummer who can do single strokes and double strokes (strokes using the stick rebound). While this method is not meant to be a substitute for the traditional way of learning the drum rudiments, which I totally recommend, one of the advantages of it is that it is a fast, easy alternate method that will give an understanding of the how the rudiments are played and should sound. If nothing else, this book will improve the drummer's overall technique and playing. After studying the approach described, it will be an easy transition to take the study of the rudiments further learning to play them in the traditional way and apply them to the drumset. / Niveau : Débutant / All Styles - Technic / Méthode / Caisse Claire

Cinq courtes études pour caisse claire, en duo virtuel avec les sons fixés, provenant tous de ce même instrument. Sans être exhaustives, ces études proposent au jeune musicien un éventail conséquent de techniques aux baguettes et aux doigts: position des impacts, ras, flas, rim-shots, moulins, volants, roulements divers, mise en place rythmique, accélérés et ralentis... Dans la première, l'élève s'attachera à faire vivre le tempo construit par les sons fixés qui exploitent diverses résonances de la caisse elle même, en promenant sur elles comme une loupe sonore.La seconde est consacrée aux frappes utilisant les doigts. Elle joue d'un espace entre le grain temporel créé par une pulsation rapide, et de nombreux grains de sons, brassés jusqu'à l'aléatoire, comme par un jeu digital à l'intérieur de la peau même de la caisse.La troisième, est techniquement très facile pour les baguettes, mais nécessite un ressenti, une attention musicale particulière afin de s'intégrer le plus musicalement possible au timbre des sons fixés. Le temps y est fluctuant : du rebond de baguettes à une vitesse impossible physiquement jusqu'à étirer les résonances du timbre de la peau comme des à-plats de couleur hors temps.Dans la quatrième, consacrée aux ras et flas, les sons fixés égrènent un tempo strict face auquel les impacts devront parfois anticiper, parfois retarder les temps forts. L'électronique y démultiplie le son de la caisse, par paquets, créant des agrégats un peu comme pourrait le faire un petit ensemble.L'hémiole est une figure rythmique dans laquelle s'interpénètrent divisions binaire et ternaire. La cinquième étude, probablement la plus difficile, joue sur un tempo rapide, de diverses permutations d'accents d'impacts aux deux mains, qui créent des figures rythmiques variées. / Caisse Claire Et Electronique

Covering All 40 Rudiments-Each dedicated to a different difficulty level this set of three books contain snare drum etudes written for each of the 40 rudiments. As a prelude to each etude there are warm-ups dedicated to the development and mastering of the rudiment it precedes.The overall idea is to have both a technical (the warm-ups) and a musical (the etudes) approach to each of the rudiments. The end result should not only be a mastering of each rudiment but an applied musicality most often ignored when playing or practising the rudiments for rudiment's sake.
