Publisher's Synopsis
For drummers and all other instrumentalists. A much-needed unofficial companion to Progressive Steps to Syncopation by Ted Reed, a well known reading text in 4/4. This book progressively develops the same type of modern/jazz rhythm, but in 3/4 time. The practice methods associated with Reed, and now this book, comprise the most effective and efficient known system for learning drumming vocabulary, improvising musically on the drums, and reading and interpreting professional drum charts. Covers quarter notes, linear quarter notes, 8th notes, 8th rests, ties, and syncopation. Includes an overview of methods for interpreting and practicing the rhythms on the drumset. Expanded edition from the previously available e-book version.
