JRP31 – Coordinated Patterns with a Dotted 1/8 Note Cymbal Beat

Description

Coordination Patterns with a Dotted Eighth-Note Cymbal Beat, is the seventh book in a series that has as its goal essentially the most extensive and thorough presentation of independence between the cymbal, snare, and bass ever written. Thus far, the other books within the series have presented coordinated snare-bass patterns in the case of an eighth-note cymbal rhythm (for rock drumming), or in the case of an eighth-note triplet cymbal rhythm (for jazz drumming). This study, then again, presents coordinated snare-bass patterns against a dotted eighth-note cymbal rhythm, and its usefulness relates specifically to jazz drumming at reasonably slow or slow-to-medium tempos. The book is an in-depth study, presenting virtually each imaginable rhythmic pattern between the snare and bass that may have practical application for the precise time feel created by the dotted eighth-note cymbal beat.
