More Hand Exercises

Here's a lesson to develop rebounds and what we call up motions. This exercise, written in 5-4 time, features groups of five notes. These are not quintuplets, just groups of 5 sixteenth notes. The first three groups of 5 sixteenth notes are sticked eaither RLRLL (first measure), or LRLRR (second measure). For those of you who know about up and down motions regarding stick technique, this exercise, and these sticking patterns give you opportunity to practice this motion.

When you practice this, use a metronome and play both feet with the metronome. Very important.
