Jazz Time, Part One
Frank Briggs
Back to Jazz

A collection of 120 drum set exercises designed to help the beginning to
intermediate drummer develop coordination, independence and accompanying
skills between the snare and bass drum while keeping steady jazz time on the ride
cymbal. The play-along tracks will help students develop the ability to recognize
the 12-bar blues and 32-bar AABA form, two of the most popular song forms in
jazz music. Practicing with the tracks will aslo help you develop better clock time
and should inspire some creative interaction with the recorded music. Exercises
include patterns using quarter notes, quarter and eighth note combinations, and
triplets and other combinations. The 32-bar AABA song form is practiced with
and without drums, and at slow and fast tempos with a bass track. The 12-bar
blues form is practiced with various combinations including drums, bass, both, or
neither. All tempos from the CD are indicated in the book. A helpful glossary of
musical signs and symbols is also included. 40 pages.
