MODERN DRUMMING is a practical educational concept that has been proven through many years of
teaching and is ideally suited for both drum lessons and self-study. Next to the motivational
aspect and the fun of making music the pedagogic and didactic aspect of truly meaningfully and
effectively conveying the contents is the primary focus. Intended for drummers of all levels
from beginners to advanced players MODERN DRUMMING 1 consolidates the most important factors
of modern drumming and provides an effective methodology for learning all relevant musical
styles. Much value is placed on the advancement of your creativity and the development of your
own style. MODERN DRUMMING 1 teaches all standard rhythms used in modern music covering
virtually all musical styles: rock pop hard rock heavy metal jazz Latin fusion R&B funk
hip-hop jungle house drums 'n' bass etc. There is also a chapter on fills and licks and
double bass drum technique is covered extensively as are the relevant rudiments. The book is
conceived in such a way that you are not forced to struggle with monotonous exercises forever
but can quickly begin playing rhythms and fills on the drum set. Several drum solos as well as
play-along songs recorded by a live band allow you to practically apply what you've learned:
you begin making music right away just like in a band. "Of all the drums books I've seen
today this drum school with CD ist the absolute top" (musicmagazine Workshop)
