In 4/4 play the BD in quarter notes and the HH on beats 2 and 4. I recommend the following books for technical development: Stick Control (Stone), Wrist and Finger Control and Swingin’ the 26 by Charlie Wilcoxon, and Accent on Accents 1 and 2 by Fine and Dahlgren.įor developing single strokes and a deeper understanding of basic rhythmic subdivisions practice the following exercise. Although rudimental drumming is primarily concerned with single and double stroke combinations, it is also important to practice orchestral or “buzz”, “crushed” rolls. You can play the rolls as eighth notes, sixteenth notes, triplets, etc. Example: play all measured rolls (5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, and 17) in an orchestrated manner around the set while keeping a Samba pattern in your feet. There are many ways to orchestrate and apply rudiments to the drum set. Practice the standard 26 drum rudiments (and their variations) as a means to develop a solid foundation for your technique.
