Wow, it’s all GOD mercies and grace, that’s keeping us alive. We ought to push and move on, to prevent idleness. To ensure we stay busy, get something doing, that’s it. Being idle can’t profit anything.
Back to our lectures 3, we talked about the Cymbal, where by we discussed about different types of cymbals we mentioned the “Splash, Crash, Ride, The sizzle, China cymbal and the Cowbell cymbal.
LECTURE 4
..
Now we are moving on to another, phase entirely. We will be talking about RUDIMENTS.
We all know before we can conclude any discipline, we ought to have known the basics, fundamentals and Rudiments. I will say that Rudiments is a fundamental principal or skill especially in a field of learning. Bringing it down to music, it is said to be one of the basic drum pattern learned as an exercise.
RUDIMENTS
This are beats used to create independence between the two hands, and feet) in drumming.This beats ca then be manipulated around the
drum set or with any percussion instrument.
They are currently 40 rudiments (or standardized drum rudiments).
For instance we have the.
Single stroke roll
RL RL RL RL RL
Double stroke roll
RR LL RR LL RR
Triple stroke roll
RRR LLL RRR LLL
Fifth Stroke roll
RR LL R
Sixth storke roll
R LL RR L
Seven stroke roll
RR LL RR L
Nine stroke roll
RR LL RR LL R
Ten stroke roll
RR LL RR LL RR
Single paradiddle
RL RR LR LL
Double paradiddle
RL RL RR LR LR LL
Paradiddle-diddle
RL RR LL LR LL RR.
So now.
Let’s give some definitions of some of the RUDIMENTS.
Single stroke roll: This is a single percussive note. It consist of a single stroke either by RL or LR
Double stroke roll: It consist of two single stroke by the same hand either by RR LL or LL RR
Diddle: A diddle is a double stroke played at the current prevailing speed of the piece. For example if a sixteenth not passage then any diddles in that passage would consist of sixteenth notes.
Paradiddle: A paradiddle consist of two single stroke followed by a double stroke. ie” RL RR or LR LL
And so onโฆ
There are thirteen essential RUDIMENTS
1″ The double stroke open roll
2″ The five stroke roll
3″ The seven stroke roll
4″ The flam
5″ The flam accent
6″ The flam paradiddle
7″ Flamauce
8″ The drag ( ruff or half drag)
9″ The single drag tap
10″ The double drag tap
11″ The double paradiddle
12″ The single retamauce
13″ The triple retamauce.
I am very sure you’ve learnt a lot from this..
