The Time Space and Drums Jazz Drumming Foundation Course includes six jazz drumming lessons, designed to take the complete beginner through a process that builds a solid jazz drumming foundation; as well as help the intermediate student drummer enhance his/her skills through more focused improvement practice.
As well as learning how to play basic jazz and swing style drum rhythms, this course of drumming lessons also covers more basic music notation and drum theory, so the student will emerge with a fully rounded jazz drumming foundation, as well as having even more music theory and reading skills. The student will also begin to integrate the two styles of drumming through various drum-fill development exercises.
With the exception of the additional drum-fill exercises covered later in this this volume, it can be said that all advanced jazz drumming concepts are built on these vital fundamental skills and so this second book in the series forms a Complete Jazz Drumming Foundation for the beginning student to build on later.
Subsequent books within the series are designed to build on the already established rock drumming and jazz drumming foundations.
About The 12 Part Series
The time space is a 12 part drumming course aimed at the beginner. However, we created the course specifically to enable drummers of any level to become a great drummer.
That is because every exercise integrates with the previous exercise, meaning you build from the very first step to the final steps, one step at a time...
This makes the course suitable for the complete beginner or the more advanced player, (advanced playing is simply the degree of mastery over basic techniques - of course having mastery over the basic concepts gives you more facility to perform more advanced rhythms and drumming in general) therefore the course is suitable for all levels of skill. That said, advanced players should view these contents as additional material only, to their current study regime. For those it is like going to the gym and building muscles harder than they currently are.
