Description A collection of 120 drum set exercises designed to help the beginning to intermediate drummer develop coordination, independence and accompanying skills between the snare and bass drum while keeping steady jazz time on the ride cymbal. The play-along tracks will help students develop the ability to recognize the 12-bar blues and 32-bar AABA form, two of the most popular song forms in jazz music. Practicing with the tracks will also help you develop better clock time and should inspire some creative interaction with the recorded music. Exercises include patterns using quarter notes, quarter and eighth note combinations, and triplets and other combinations. The 32-bar AABA song form is practiced with and without drums, and at slow and fast tempos with a bass track. The 12-bar blues form is practiced with various combinations including drums, bass, both, or neither. All tempos from the CD are indicated in the book. A helpful glossary of musical signs and symbols is also included.

This book is designed for the drummer who has had some experience playing other styles of music but has a desire to learn some techniques and styles of jazz. It is assumed the reader has a knowledge of notes measures or bars time signatures musical notation and drum notation. A knowledge of the drum rudiments is also desirable. Though the book is meant as an overview to teach basic and essential jazz techniques it will take someone who is willingto put in the time and practice from being a total jazz novice to the level of being a competent drummer in the jazz idiom. In addition to learning the essential knowledge required to play jazz the student will also accomplishmany intermediate and advanced techniques. I should note that I wrote this book EXACTLY as I teach jazz drumming techniques in my private lessons. This system has been developed and refined over the years and has given excellent proven results that have produced some fine drummers many of whom went on to build careers playing and teaching jazz. I am hoping that this book will inspire the reader and student to delve further into the jazz idiom and develophis or her technique and knowledge to the highest level. And even if the student goes no further in the jazz idiom I am confident that the book will open doors to other avenues that the drums can take and will be benefit thereader in any style of music he or she chooses to play.

The goal of this play along series is to provide the jazz drummer with play along and practice material that will be challenging informative and musical. The series contains important jazz tunes based on the standard jazz repertoire. While there is no written melody there are a number of melodies that one can sing over the existing chord changes. I have been giving similar recordings to students through the years and this is the result of the feedback about their wants and needs as players. It always seemed to make sense to me to practice in the context of a tune adhering to the form and melody. These play along tunes provide you with a musical backdropto hone your own skills. I certainly encourage you to explore your musical boundaries. These tunes give you a place to practice comping soloing trading fourths and eighths working on your ride cymbal sound etc. As you can see your development is limited only by your imagination! The tempos range from quarter note equals 100 to quarter note equals 320. You can work on these in any given order but we suggest the slower tempos first. I also give you a suggested listening list of essential jazz standards and drummers that exemplify this kind of musical drumming. Steve Davis.
