Drumline to Drumset - John Parker - Bog

Drumlines are expert practicers: they isolate each part of their playing into the tiniest fragments and then perfect those fragments. Each phrase in a drumline's performance has been honed to a razor's edge and drilled to the point where the drums seem to play themselves.

Drumline to Drumset takes the concepts of a drumline's most common exercises and applies them to the drumset to take the student's playing to the next level. Each exercise is first applied to the snare drum and then applied around the drums. Once the exercise has been mastered, the concepts are applied in practical grooves and fills.
