Drums and Percussion Course , general description
The educational objective of the course I propose is to provide a solid basic technical preparation that allows the student to master the essential and characteristic languages of modern music.
In the styles “jazz, funk, latin and rock” the role that the drums play plays is very important and essential.
An in-depth and meticulous study of all the rudiments of the drum applied to the four limbs is necessary, the coordination of the same is learned through the correct setting of the mechanics of the movement and the studies are developed through obstinate tempos on rhythms “funk, jazz and rock”.
Metrical studies are performed on divisions applied to one quarter, two quarters and three quarters and readings are systematically studied with classical divisions and swing portamento.
Instructions are also provided regarding reading the score in “cut time” and reading “a prima vista” (with quarters, eighths, sixteenths, triplets and relative pauses).
The rhythmic bearing is studied in detail with particular emphasis on the overall sound and therefore on the balance between the various instruments of the set (drums and cymbals).
Special care is dedicated to the use of the “click” (metronome), a device that has become indispensable both for study and for live performances.
At the end of the course, particular attention will be paid to the polyrhythmic aspect of the study (different rhythmic meters, opposed and parallel) and to the rhythmic cycles to be insert within a predetermined number of measures.
During the course, which lasts three years and is divided into three trimesters each, bases without drums with various levels of difficulty will be used.
The method is inspired by the following methods: Dante Agostini, Gary Chaffee, Steve Houghton, Jim Chapin, Ted Reed, Gary Chester, Charly Wilconsons, etc.
