All 26 of the Standard American Drum Rudiments, their variations and a number of compound rudiments are used here to establish the countless possibilities which present themselves within the bounds of the drumming rudiments. The interesting library contains titles such as: * Stomping Through the Bar Line * Gingersnap * Ruffing Up a Storm * No Left Flam 6/8

George Lawrence Stone's Accents and Rebounds, the follow-up to the classic Stick Control, builds on the basics with accent routines and more advanced rhythms to improve the player's finesse and control. This book includes sections on accented eighths, dotted notes, and triplets, as well as rebound control and more. If you are a fan of Stick Control, then this method supplies the perfect next step for your practice routine. This updated edition adds Joe Morello's legendary arrow notation to help students incorporate the motions of the Moeller technique.

Polyrhythmic Studies for Snare Drum is a compilation of 35 etudes and 26 solos for intermediate and advanced levels. It is designed to encompass several phases of music for the snare drum as well as to develop the minds and hands to perform both common and uncommon meters. The first section of the book contains an analysis of polyrhythms and abnormal groups; if studied carefully, this section will help in building a solid foundation of understanding so that polyrhythmic and odd group figures may be executed with little difficulty.
