Designed for
the intermediate to advanced rudimental drummer, THE NEXT LEVEL is
a comprehensive
method for any player who desires to take his or her
drumming beyond their current abilities.
Starting with the fundamental techniques, Jeff Queen
describes in detail all aspects of approaching the
drum: from how to properly grip the sticks to applying
the Moeller and Velocity Strokes to achieve maximum
sound quality and endurance.
Drawing from
his vast drum corps, solo performance
and teaching experience, Jeff details the basic
techniques that comprise current rudimental styles: TWO HEIGHT CONTROL
/ TIMING CONTROL / DIDDLE CONTROL /
BUZZ CONTROL /
FLAM CONTROL
For the advanced
snare drummer, Jeff Queen will take
you to The Next Level with: HYBRID RUDIMENTS /
BACKSTICKING AND TRICKS /
ACHIEVING SPEED /
SOLO CONSTRUCTION
Jeff finishes
up the book with his own Championship
solo, TRIBUTE, which gives us an inside perspective
into the skills of a true master.
The Next
Level is destined to become one of the
all time great books on the subject of rudimental
drumming. All students (whether you’re going to play
snare drum or tenors) will benefit from this excellent
resource! |
