Mantras For Rudimental Snare Drum

A “mantra” is a word or short phrase that is repeated—repeatedly—with the goal of creating transformation within the speaker in order to attain enlightenment. In the spirit of that concept, this book consists of extremely short exercises that can be repeated over and over again, in order to reinforce the physical, mental, and musical skills that are essential for a truly versatile rudimental drummer.

The forty-two exercises in this volume cover different rudimental applications, and each exercise is accompanied by its title, a loosely-associated word or concept for your consideration, and a recommended tempo range. Repetition and self-evaluation are the name of the game. The re-organization and logical progression new to this second edition have transformed the old “Mantras” packets into a profound logical progression that will take your hands and your mind to a new level of excellence!
