Snare drum double strokes 1 - Drum lesson preview
	Introduction to the drum lesson: Snare drum single strokes 1 Talking about resistance, for a drummer the single stroke is surely the most demanding. The drum sheet of this lesson shows some exercises dealing with single strokes, alternating fourths, eights and sixteenths. To develop speed, endurance and precision, you should play every pattern slowly at first, and increase the speed only when you find precision and equality of the strokes, and the maximum looseness. You should play the exercises inverting the hands and, after you have learnt them singularly, you should repeat the exercises one after the other.
