Locate the floor tom and keep counting through the gaps.
01 THE LITTLE IDEA
Here’s the lovely bit.
Listen once, count with the click, then play the displayed pattern. Locate the floor tom and keep counting through the gaps. Play voices sharing a position together. Stick choice, limb assignment, and dynamics are not scored. Pattern positions count from 1; 1.5 is the & of beat 1, and 1.25/1.75 are e/a. Floor tom at 1; Floor tom at 3; Floor tom at 5; Floor tom at 7. The pattern lasts 8 quarter-note beats; leave gaps silent.
Today’s little goalPlay the 8-beat pattern at 60 BPM with at least 80% recall and precision.
