Revised and updated for 2013 with new solos. This is a book of 10 intermediate to advanced drum solos for drum set. What is different about them is they are not your typical “play a drum beat, then play a fill” type of solos that are so prevalent today. Each solo looks at a different aspect of percussion playing, and in doing so, the performer needs to master certain skills and coordination to play them. While a few of them are groove oriented, most of them are more open and abstract, often taking an idea and playing it across different aspects, such as: varying meters, splitting the hands into 2 separate lines, rudimental permutations, exploring dynamics, exploring time & space, texture, etc. If you are looking for something that is both challenging and enjoyable to play, then this book is for you.
