rock drums commandments

''prelude'' chapter:

this book should be called ''rock drums technique essentials that are most useful in praxis''. this is also its purpose. but i prefer the title "rock drums commandments" which basically means the same thing.

the book covers all the essential technical areas of rock (and pop) drumming. it is intended for daily technique practice. it is suitable for all levels of drummers, from beginners to professionals. the exercises are not arranged by level of difficulty, but by specific areas. choose the order that is appropriate for your current knowledge or interests.

the goal is to play a truly wonderful instrument, such as the drums, with fulfillment. but of course:

we can only reach freedom through discipline. when playing any musical instrument, the only way we can achieve relaxation in performance is through the best possible technique. we will then be able to feel the fulfillment and pass it on to the listeners as well.

and most importantly:

despite the fact that these are technical exercises, play them like short pieces of music, therefore musically. so don't practice but make music. there is a big difference.

this is the book of a lifetime. the possibilities for your growth are endless.
