- Purchasing A Beginner Drum Set
By: Melville Jackson | - Why should one buy a beginner drum set?
If your kid wants to start drumming, you may consider buying a beginner drum set. A junior drum set is not a toy. It is a proper set that enables the young learner to enjoy drumming lessons and ensures a smooth transition to a full size drum set once the drummer is old enough to do so. One of the key aspects of drumming is coordination. It is easier to achieve hand and feet coordination if one starts learning on a proper drum set.

- What Piano Players Should Know About Percussion Instruments
By: Duane Shinn | - Percussion instruments include the snare drum (and all drums in general), cymbals, tympanis (sometimes called kettle drums as they are shaped as such), and exotic instruments such as the guiro, claves, and maracas. These instruments, and the way they are played, go a long way in determining the feel and style of the music. Where a rock band might have a set of drums (snare drum, bass drum, cymbals), Latin musicians used a number of different instruments to create music.

- Snare, Cymbals, Stands And Accessories Setup Guide Part Six
By: Ronald Black | - There are some even more rare cases like myself in which drummers play a left handed but right footed setup. In that case, the drum set is set up completely for a right handed person, but the ride cymbal is moved over to the left side of the kit instead of the right, over near the floor tom. To play drums in this way requires slightly different playing techniques than just a full right or left handed setup. If you're left handed, you might want to check out a left handed, right footed setup and ...

- Snare, Cymbals, Stands And Accessories Setup Guide Part Five
By: Ronald Black | - On a regular right handed kit setup, the ride cymbal should be placed above the floor tom on the right side of your kit. Because the ride cymbal is made to be played on its top and not its edge, like the crash cymbal, it should not be placed up as high as the crash cymbal. Be careful not to place it low enough so that it knocks against the top of your floor tom, either. Be a little Goldilocks again, ind find just the right height for you.

You'll know it's in the folded up position if you're looking at it and you can't picture a cymbal being attached to it. In this case, simply unscrew the hand screw that you'll find on the side of the tilter just enough so you can move the tilter up and down. Put the tilter in a more or less horizontal position, and use the same hand scre ...

By: Ashley Appling | - In most cases drum lessons are an afterthought. Either you start on your own, or you reach a plateau, or wall of progression in your drumming ability. This is typically when the drum lesson search begins. Usually the local music store is where it starts. This is either the beginner that has just bought his first drum set, or a self-proclaimed intermediate looking for some help to overcome some hurdles he or she has encountered.
In this process it is important to know what ...

By: Ronald Black | - If you have assembled your Hi Hat cymbals correctly, your two hi hat cymbals would now be on top of each other on the hi hat stand, looking like a sandwich. If you step on the hi hat pedal, you'll see the rod going up and down uselessly. Step on the pedal just a little bit, and then tighten the hand screw on the outside of the clutch. Then, when you lift up your foot and the rod goes up, it will take the clutch and the top hi hat cymbal up along with it. The amount of space between the hi hat cy ...

By: Ronald Black | - Depending on the type of hi hat stand you have, the rod might have a hinge in it, causing I t to flop over while still connected, rather than being straight upright. Next, look for a thick, hollow tube with what looks like a small plate on one end with a felt disc stacked on top of it. Take this hollow tube with the plate side facing up and put it over the long rod, so that the long rod is inside the hollow tube. If your long rod has a hinge, you'll need to hold it upright as you put the hollow ...

By: Ronald Black | - The snare is a shallow drum with crooked, wiggly wires attached to one of the heads. These crooked wires are called snares, and they are what give this drum both its name and its distinctive sound. The head that has the snares lying against it is a special extra thin head and should never be hit with your sticks. It should be treated as carefully as an egg. The snare drum uses a special stand to hold it, called, you guessed it, a snare stand. There are generally two different kinds of snare stan ...

- How To Develop Precision Speed On The Drum Kit
By: Ashley Appling | - When I encounter most young drummers today, the most prominent question seems to be, "How can I develop speed around the drum kit?" I always follow that up with, "What is your purpose for playing fast?" Often that leaves a pause, with an uncertain answer that leaves them wondering, "What is the reason I want to play fast on the drum kit?" Usually it is selfish in nature. For example, "I want my friends to see how fast I can play", or "I want to play fast like this particular drummer", etc... ...

- Tips On How To Play The Drums
By: Ashley Appling | - In trying to describe to someone what makes a great drummer, it always comes down to, "Do they really know how to play drums?" Do they understand that drumming is more of an art form, and takes a tremendous amount of time and dedication to the craft before one can say, "I know how to play drums."
In my experience as a professional drummer, it has been an ongoing pursuit of skill refinement, and fine-tuning each and every aspect of my technique. In drumming, you have to be able t ...

- Setting Up And Tuning Your Drums Guide For The Youngest Drummers Out There Part Three
By: Ronald Black | - Tuning drums starts with a drum key. I actually have one on my keychain so I'll almost never be without one. Unless I lose my keys, but that will never happen, right? You need this little tool to turn the rods that tighten or loosen the drumhead on the drum. This is called tuning the drum, which you will learn to do shortly. The second use for a key is to tighten various things on the hardware or stands. If you go to tighten something that's too small to grab with your fingers, you'll probably n ...

- Brush Techniques Used In Afro Cuban, Brazilian And Jazz
By: Eric Starr | - When performing a ballad with brushes, another way to play is the "figure eight" method. Both hands perform a figure eight on the snare drum, swirling and rarely leaving the surface. Generally, the ride hand starts on beat 1 at the upper portion of the drum while the snare hand is placed toward the lower portion on the same beat. The hands move in contrary directions to each other, both in figure eight patterns, and end up on opposite sides of the drum on beats 2 and 4. This enables a drummer to ...

By: Eric Starr | - Though Avante Garde utilizes the ideas of the previous two styles, it requires more technically advanced drumming, because the time pattern is usually less apparent, and is sometimes deliberately obscured or even omitted entirely (as with much of the music of Cecil Taylor).
