Advanced Technique for the Drumset

Grundlegende Technik spielend lernen!. Par BERG ANDREA. Supposedly rudiments are the basis for playing the drums at all . . . . but for students who are not so advanced, it’s an absolute mystery why they have to struggle with these boring technical exercises when all they really want to do is just play. Thisbook can be introduced early in the instructional process or used supplementarily if youre learning on your own. As soon as the first contact with notation has been made and youre playing your first grooves, you can then have fun jumping into theworld of rudiments. To this end, this book is separated into two Tours. Tour 1 contains simple exercises for the beginner, Tour 2 is directed at the advanced student who extensively knows and plays the rudiments. / Niveau : Tous Niveaux / All Styles - Technic / Recueil / Batterie et Percussions

Bill 'Stuhlly' Brennenstuhl's new book 'The Gears for Grooving on Drumset' encompasses all the tools a beginner-advanced drummer would need to really groove on the drums. The book ties together the rudimental motions of Down andUp strokes to help drummers feel the metronome instead of chasing it down. Each chapter starts with a technique study then the strokes are broken down into a rudiment. Finally the student applies the motions to the drum set allthe while learning to feel the timing. For the beginner this gives a solid foundation with the metronome to perfect feel and timing. For intermediate to advanced it's a good refresher study of rudiments and techniques. 1.

Progressive Rock Drumming explores many of the techniques used by the founding prog drummers and shows how drummers can create their own Drumset parts based on these techniques while also demonstrating how multiple and very different Drumset parts can be created for the same music. While Progressive Rock Drumming explores some advanced techniques it also teaches the reader how to create original and inventive Drumset parts without the need to play in a demanding virtuosic style. Progressive Rock Drumming addresses a wide variety of progressive rock styles including such sub-genres as symphonic classical fusion neo-progressive progressive metal Rock In Opposition (RIO) and space rock.The package includes access to audio of demo tracks as well as play-along tracks (with and without drums) for nine songs in various prog rock styles. Progressive Rock Drumming includes charts for all of the songs that have written-out drum parts as well as condensed band parts to help one see how the Drum part relates to the song resulting in a very musical approach to progressive rock drumming.

Hands & Feet-'This book is designed for the intermediate/advanced drummer to improve musical technical control and reading ability and presents several rhythmic styles such as funk jazz and Latin. I'm not trying to educate you on the 'correct' Cuban or Brazilian grooves but have used this music as an inspiration for different phrashings and concepts. In the notes you can find book recommendations to explore the styles fully.Please feel free to use the material creatively like repeating bars when you feel like it. You can also use the pieces for advanced sight reading but I suggest that you take time to look carefully at the dynamics and stickings. All the stickings are basedon a right handed player (please reverse them if you are left handed).The basic concept is to have rhythmic compositions with basic classical notation and technique that you can play on a drumset or on a practice pad with your feet stompin' at the floor. The first part is snare and bassdrum with hi-hat foot suggestions. Later in the book hi-hat (with stick) and snarerim are added.The advantage of these concepts is that playing through these etudes is very closely related to what is going on in modern music. Especially important for players in Jazz Rock and Latin but also very useful for a classical percussionist who needs solid music training.The last part of this book is a few pages of technique studies and rhythmic concepts that is related to the compositions. The purpose is not to include all basic strokes and principles (there are already many great books for that) but to show you some concepts that I have found useful and special through my years of playing and teaching.'                            Michael Axen
