Melodic Drumming

By Raúl Valdés and Christopher Knox

The objective of Melodic Drumming is to stimulate creativity and musicality. The book provides challenges but at the same time, it contains terminology that is easily understood. The exercises focus on the development of control, speed, and technical facility around the drum set. Through the study of melodically designed exercises, as well as hand and feet coordination exercises, you will be able to develop an unlimited amount of new musical ideas for grooves and drum fills to be used in a variety of different tempos and/or genres. The ideas in this book translate to all styles of music including gospel, pop, fusion, jazz, rock, worship, and more.
