Hand Exercise Using AfroCuban Inspired Rhythhms
Fellow Drummers, I hope you're enjoying our lessons here. Please write to me with any comments. Thanks.
This lesson takes one of the hand patterns from our previous lesson and orchestrates between snare and bass drum(s).
I've included the singles exercise, so you can see how I've applied the bass drum. I think a good way to practice this would be to make the 16th triplets into 8th triplets (this would mean re-writing the pattern), use 2 and 4 in the HH and play (1) opposite the jazz ride pattern and (2) between SD and BD while maintainiing the HH on 2 & 4.
Please drop me a line to let me know your comments and questions.
As Always, Enjoy!
