The Essential Guide To READING RHYTHM

Although primarily written for drummers, this 158page text book is also a very useful tool in the hands of any student of music that wishes to develop their rhythmic reading skills. READING RHYTHM is an excellent resource for all drum students and teachers wishing to find supplementary material for their students. It is packed with over 50 Sight Reading Exercises and accompanied with free play-along tracks (available for download below). This is extremely useful in developing accurate timing and for checking that you are indeed on the right track. The ostinato patterns at the back of the book open things up for serious coordination development, capable of extending even the most dedicated drummers. Polyrhythms are also explored such as 2 over 3, 3 over 2, 4 over 3, 3 over 4, 3 over 5, 4 over 5, 3 over 7 and 4 over 7.

This book is fast becoming the industry standard in reading and coordination text books. It’s simply a must have for every drummer! The RRP is $49.95 AUD but I am currently discounting to $39.95 with FREE delivery anywhere in Australia! For international orders a $20.00 fee will be charged for shipping.
Also available in 51 countries as an eBook. Get your copy from Apple Books and Google Play Books for the ridiculously insane price of $4.99 AUD, $2.99 USD or $3.49 EUR!!!
