One of the most versatile and practical works ever written for drums. Created exclusively to address syncopation, it has earned its place as a standard tool for teaching beginning drummers syncopation and strengthening reading skills. This book includes many accented eighths, dotted eighths and sixteenths, eighth-note triplets and sixteenth notes for extended solos. In addition, teachers can develop many of their own examples from it.

An invaluable aid to chop-building! Order today.

This is a great book, the only problem is sometimes the handwriting is rather sloppy, so you might have to reread a bar or two with this book. However, this book will definitly improve your sight reading.

My first drum teacher started me on this book in the mid 1960's. It opened me up to playing that I had never experienced before. If you need a percussion syncopation book...look no further!

I got this book for my drum lessons, and its a great way to get your chops up to par. You can also play the exercises differently by adding accents and flams. Great for the beginning snare drummer. It's all hand written, but it's still able to be read.
