Miscellaneous Percussion Music - Mixed Levels
Stick Control
George Lawrence Stone's Stick Control is the original classic, often called the bible of drumming. In 1993, Modern Drummer magazine named it one of the top 25 drumming books of all-time. In the words of the author, this is the ideal book for improving "control, speed, flexibility, touch, rhythm, lightness, delicacy, power, endurance, preciseness of execution, and muscular coordination," with extra attention given to the development of the weak hand. This indispensable book for drummers of all types includes hundreds of basic to advanced rhythms and moves through categories of single-beat combinations, triplets, short roll combinations, flam beats, flam triplets and dotted notes, and short roll progressions.
It's Your Move
It's Your Move is about achieving maximum potential as a player. The book gathers questions that have been asked of Dom Famularo during his private teaching career for 30 years, which includes many master classes, clinics, large drum expos, and 40 years of professional playing. The included exercises are vignettes to spark fun and creativity. This book is for your hands and your feet, on the drum pad and the drumset. The title of the book means it's up to you and your desire be a better player. Dom offers the seeds of ideas, now the student must react. It is the student's choice.
Open-handed Playing
This groundbreaking book offers a step-by-step approach for drummers of all styles to learn and apply the concept of open-handed playing on the modern drumset. Based on concepts developed by teaching great Jim Chapin and fusion legend Billy Cobham, Open-Handed Playing not only outlines all the benefits of avoiding the crossing of hands when playing the drumset, but provides an incredibly detailed, complete and approachable method for learning this technique. "There is a wealth of ideas and exercises that offer students inspiration to develop their own approaches and applications." Tom Morgan, Percussive Notes
The Weaker Side
This book addresses the common problem of proportionally unequal abilities between a drummer's dominant and weaker muscle sets in drumming technique. The strategic exercises are designed to develop the under-used muscles to cultivate a more balanced ability for controlled movement and a fluid and consistent sound. Organized for gradual strengthening through daily practice, the exercises can be used for both hands and feet.
