    This blog compared similarities between physical therapy and teaching music. It was interesting to read the list of fifteen items which are shared between the two very different topics. The list started with hydrating and described the importance of drinking plenty of water after a strenuous exercise as well as when practicing music. My favorite parts are the article included the idea of practicing slower as well as practicing for shorter periods of times more often. I think those are great teaching tips to help our students improve. So often we as musicians and teachers just want to do everything in the fastest way possible. We also spend so much of our time staying busy with life that we seem to squeeze all of our practicing into one time rather than little by little.

    Excellent tool for percussionists to HEAR what the 40 essential rudiments are supposed to sound like and gives a very good methodology for practicing them slowly and gradually improving. The one downside (and it is significant in my philosophy) is that many of the illustrations use traditional grip, whereas I teach only match grip.
  • esikorski on 24 Sep 15
     
    This page is a one stop shop for all snare drum rudiments. Each rudiment has a video showing the proper technique. In addition, there is a written out version of each rudiment as well as different tempi with which it can be practiced. This is a great resource to share with all percussion students, especially those preparing for auditions.
  • sbrowne32 on 25 Sep 15
     
    Great website for teachers who are not percussionist. Rudiments are hard for anyone to memorize if you are not using them everyday. This site is also great for students who are still learning rudiments. One can easily click on a rudiment and can hear what it is supposed to sound like at different tempos, and what it looks like in standard notation.
