Essential Drum Rudiments

This course is designed for drummers and musicians at all levels to gain greater control of their instrument and build a stronger foundation in rhythm. It covers the fundamental concept of percussion rudiments. Rudiments are at the core of being a competent drummer and percussionist. If you're not a drummer, learning rudiments can enhance your musicianship, coordination, and give you a better sense of rhythm. This course is meant to build a solid foundation of technique, an in-depth understanding of sub-divisions, and coordinated control of various sticking patterns. A firm grasp of these core concepts will open many doors to drummers of any style or context. The rudiments in this course were thoughtfully chosen as common tools for the working drummer or musician. If you're not a drummer - this course can provide a deeper understanding of rhythm and improve your coordination by learning these sticking patterns. These can be applied to any instrument by gaining the skills of limb independence, improved dexterity, and a deeper sense of rhythmic concepts. These rudiments can be applied without drumsticks or playing surface. Simply play these exercises out on your lap with a metronome or a drum-beat accompaniment.
