Excellent lesson and explanation of what you're doing. Keep them coming, please. I'm currently working through this book but haven't got a far as page 36, but I think I'll try applying your concept to the other pages, where feasible. Thanks.
I am glad this method helps :-) I had the same "struggle"! That´s why I came up with this idea. Maybe it´s not the most musical approach, but it helps to get in contact with this big amount of material.......all the best! Derek
... What I like about this process is developing the small precision percussive sound. Note: remember accenting is another skill set that you apply to this small precision sound....🎉
Hi Derek. Thank you for this delineating 1 bar practice tip, very helpful. I have a Q i noted you at times seem to play open handed with both LH-RH on hi- hat side Ride, yet the kit is set up as Right handed! Please might you explain? as I’m Right footed but Left handed, & I’ve not really focused enough as i can at times get ‘tongue- tide’ especially soloing! Clarity might help? Thank you. Josie
Hey Josie! Thank you for your message 😊 I’m right handed leading with my left hand on a right handed kit…..that’s the way I have learned it in my small village back in the 80‘s/90‘s….. I lead grooves with my left hand but for fill-ins or soloing I lead with my right hand…..does that makes sense?🤪 All the best from Berlin! Derek
HNY by the way!🎉 it Kinda makes sense, however right handed school of thought usually means & implies that one leads with ones ‘dominant’ hand; (R’handed-R’kit setup) (L’handed-L’kit setup) But some drummers Play what is called ‘open handed’ when Playing hi-hats & snare grooves, wheres as traditionally RH crosses over left hand to play hi-hats. But i noted you played ‘Open Ride’ with your left hand which is actually quite cool for a left handed player playing a R’kit, if that makes sense!🙃thanks fir taking the time to reply. Heres to all things Drums🥁👍🏻!
Hallo Anton! Danke für Deine netten Worte 🙂 Das große Ride Becken links ist ein 22" Sabian Ride HH (genaue Bezeichnung müsste ich noch mal nachschauen) und rechts das kleinere mit der Kette ist ein 18" Meinl Byzance thin dry crash. Viele Grüße, Derek

Hey Maximilian! Thank you for your kind words 😊 I am glad this video-lesson helps you! All the best from Berlin! Derek
Thanks for posting. This is a brilliant way into working on these solo phrases, which I have previously found a bit impenetrable and overwhelming
I am glad this method helps :-) I had the same "struggle"! That´s why I came up with this idea. Maybe it´s not the most musical approach, but it helps to get in contact with this big amount of material.......all the best! Derek
@@derekscherzerberlin cheers, Derek. I'm hoping that the 'musical' bit happens when I have some in muscle memory. All the best.....
Methodical as always Derek! cheers
Happy you like it 🙂 Thanks for watching!

Yes, absolutely 👍
