Jazz - Adding the Snare Drum

1/1/2020

0 Comments

 
In a Jazz feel the main time keeping is down with the ride cymbal.  The left hand and the bass drum  often play add complimentary rhythms (often called comping) that help create interest in the music or add new musical ideas to the what is already going on.  
In this series of exercises we start by learning how to add the snare drum on all 4 different beats of the bar.  Then we learn how to add it on all the off beats, followed by combinations of the on and off beat hits.
