Learn to Play the Drumset

The perfect way to start a beginner on the entire drumset! This informative and descriptive DVD: takes you through the basics of four- and five-piece drum set-ups (and how to tune them); illustrates the grips and how to use the sticks; teaches the staff, time values, double strokes and counting; and much more. Using patterns drawn from a wide variety of musical styles, you'll learn how to play a drum fill, an open roll, a closed roll, flams, paradiddles, and single- and double-stroke combinations as they apply to the drumset. Includes an 8-page booklet with diagrams and other useful information. Use the DVD by itself or with Peter Magadini's Learn to Play the Drumset, Book 1 (Book/CD Pack: 06620030, $14.95; Book Only: 06620000, $7.95).
