Whenstanding,yourweightshouldbeevenlydistributedthroughoutthebottomofyourfoot.Besureto keep your chin up and keep your eyes focused forwards. This promotes a confident, strongappearance.While maintaining good posture, actively stay relaxed in your shoulders, arms, and

hands. Avoiding excessive tension in the arms, shoulders, and backwill allow you to play better andmorecomfortablyforlongerperiodsoftime.Accurate internalization of tempo is critical to a drumline’s success. The whole bottom of the foot

SnareDrumPlayingTechnique

GENERALAPPROACH

The general theory of how to strike a drummay seem complex, but once understood, it will comenaturally. Our technique is designed to produce a smooth, resonant sound; relaxation is a criticalconceptofour technique–atno timeshouldyou feel yourselfpurposely squeezingan implementortensing any muscles. The key to our technique is to maintain a high level of control over the

implementwhilebeingasrelaxedaspossible.Anyofthestrokesweplayshouldbea“beadfirst”motion,meaningagood,strongwristturnandnotleadingwith the arm.As higher heights are played,more armwill be incorporated naturally into thestroke,butthewristmotionmustbemaintained.MATCHEDGRIP(RIGHTHAND)

Besuretoalwaysleadwiththebeadwhenplaying,andnotthearm.Thethumbiswhereasignificantportionofthepowercomesfromwiththistypeofstroke.Trytokeepthegapsbetweenallyourfingersclosed, but don’t squeeze them together; it should be comfortable when playing. Be aware of thetendencytostrainyourmiddlefinger,orallowittoawkwardlycurlinwhileplaying.Thisisreferredtoas“theclaw”andcancausediscomfortanddoesnotlookgood.Themiddlefingerdoesn’tdomuchduringthestroke; itsimply isalongfortheride.Also,trytokeeptheringandpinkyfingersclosetothestickwhenplaying,especiallyathigherheights.SETPOSITION

When standing at set,you will have the sticksin and they should beheld the same way asthe normal grip. Theright stick will befurthestfromyourbody.This way, when thesticks are brought out(to tacet position),nothinginthegripchanges.Atset,thesticksshouldbeheldparalleltothedrum.Theleftpinkyshouldbegentlytouchingthetopoftherim,andthemiddlefingeroftherighthand,iffullyextended,shouldbeable to touch the topheadof thedrum.Thiswill ensureyour sticksarenotawkwardlyangled,orunparalleltotherim.

TACETPOSITION

Thisposition is howyoustand with the sticksout. The best way tostart is with sticks inyour hands and let yourarmshangbyyoursides,relaxed.Make sure yourshoulders are relaxedand down with notension.Whenyoubringthesticksup,yourleftarmshouldnotbeparalleltotheground,butslightlyangleddownward.Thiswillbe theheightyouadjustyourdrumto.Whenyouholdyoursticksout, theyshouldbeangledslightlydownward,withabouttwofingersworthofspacebetweenyourstickandtherim.PLAYINGZONES

The snare drum utilizes 4 playing zones: center, halfway, edge, and gut edge. Each zone provides aspecificsoundandvolume.Mostmusicthatisplayedwillbeplayeddirectlyinthecenterofthehead.CENTER–Ifyoudrewastraightlineconnectingthe3o’clockand9o’clocklugs,thebeadsofthesticksshouldbeinthecenterofthisline.HALFWAY– If youdrewa straight lineconnecting the2o’clockand10o’clock lugs, thebeadsof thesticksshouldbeinthecenterofthisline.EDGE– Ifyoudrewastraightlineconnectingthe1o’clockand11o’clocklugs,thebeadsofthesticksshouldbeinthecenterofthisline.GUTS–Thisposition isthesamedistancefromtherimasEdge,but is locatedatthe2o’clock lug,ordirectlyoverthesnaresthatlinethebottomofthedrum.
