Mattingly Snare Drum Method

Geared toward beginning band and orchestra students, this modern,
musical approach to learning snare drum includes a play-along CD that
features full concert band recordings of band arrangements and classic
marches with complete drum parts that allow the beginning drummer to
apply the book's lessons in a realistic way. This book/CD pack also
includes: fun-to-play solos and etudes; duets that can be played with
another drummer, a teacher, or with the play-along tracks on the CD;
studies in 4/4, 2/4, 3/4, 6/8 and cut-time; roll studies that can be
applied in both rudimental (double-stroke) and orchestral
(buzz-stroke) style; the 40 Percussive Arts Society International Drum
Rudiments (including modern drum corps rudiments); and much more! The
Hal Leonard Snare Drum Method has been carefully graded and aligned
with several popular band methods, including Essential Elements. There
is simply no better way to prepare for playing snare drum in a band or
orchestra!
