A Field Guide to 50 Drum Rudiments is now available directly from Ingram at the link or through Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
The Field Guide uses targeted exercises, verbal descriptions, frequent counting syllables, basic stroke indications, and ubiquitous sticking to make learning and understanding rudimental drumming as easy as possible.
The PAS 40 and NARD 26 are represented, plus several common and useful hybrids, making this book helpful for modern rudimental playing. Each rudiment is shown in its most standard notation format, as well as in alternative styles and in alternative rhythms, where applicable, to make sure that the idea translates to multiple playing situations.
With 134 pages of actionable content to improve your playing, there is no equivalent book on the market today. Rather than focusing on etudes, The Guide provides bite size and functional training exercises for maximum understanding and skill building. See this page for more.
