Lesson transcript:
Creative Applications of Common Rudiments
I thought I'd take this opportunity to show you some creative applications of common rudiments. In the following piece, I'll be improvising against a melodic loop and just throwing in as many rudiments as I can from the different groups.
Types of Rudiments
- Rolls
- Diddles
- Flams
- Stroke Rolls
These are all the rudiments that you'll need to look at through your rock school grades.
Improvisation Approach
Now, this is very unstructured. I'm just improvising. I'm really just having fun with the rudiments, doing different combinations of sounds, and experimenting with different groove embellishments and fills.
Practice Recommendations
So, it's a practice routine. I strongly recommend that you study and practice rudiments as a great way to develop:
- Technical control
- Creative vocabulary on the drum kit
