  • The 26 drum rudiments have been used to teach drumming for over 100 years and in this video I take 4 of my favourites and share how they can be applied to the Irish Bodhrán to develop your playing hand technique.
    I’m Ruairi Glasheen, and I’m a percussionist, composer and filmmaker based in London. I’ve been playing bodhrán since I was 4 years old and I simply love this instrument! This is the first episode in a NEW SERIES of technique tutorials where I’ll share with you my approach to playing this instrument so please comment below any suggestions or requests you might have!

    In light of last nights news here in the UK I’ve decided to upload a new weekly bodhrán series on my RUclips channel called BODHRÁN BOOTCAMP where I’ll share some of me’ favourite bodhrán technical exercises! See if you can carve 5 minutes into your day for some bodhrán and I’ll bet you that you’ll see the improvements after a week of daily practice. Stay strong guys, we can do this R x

      @@bodhran this whole series is a godsend. THANK YOU for making it available. I just ordered an upgraded bodhran and plan to take it with me on all my cycling journeys. Thinking of your India videos, a year ago we cycled across India from Chennai to Cochin and it was fabulous! Just wish I'd have brought my bodhran then to connect on a different level with people.

    Hi Ruairi, another great lesson. I've practised every night since July, but having seen this I think I have been a bit wild in my drummimng and not as controlled as the rudiments suggest, but I will work on them during January. Thanks again.

    • @bodhran
      @bodhran  3 года назад +2

      Wild drumming sounds fun! Remember technique is just a means to an end, so dont control too much ;) Make sure to have fun! Hope you the bodhrán bootcamp videos on the way- Ruairi

    Hey, Ruairi! Thank you so much for all these exercises, I spend each day half an hour with you/the bootcamp or other execises, it is great! I already made progresses. Ok, nobody teaches me with response, what I am doing right or not. But I think, my skills are mounting up sloooowly. Thaaaanks and a big hug, Susanne, Hessia, Germany

    This video has made think there might be another use for my copy of Stick Control. Works great for the snare I don’t see why switching the Rs and Ls for Ds and Us wouldnt work just as well for Bodhran!

    • @bodhran
      @bodhran  3 года назад +1

      100% I totally agree- in fact, I have a video scheduled on something related. There are so many crossovers!

    I've been playing the bodhran for a month now. I've been told I'm a natural....really its because I subscribed to your videos. Yet I have seen some players tape the edge and even up to an inch onto the face. Can you explain why they do this and why you don't? Thank you for all your lessons!

  • @UnkaDon
    @UnkaDon 3 года назад

    Love your teaching style. Have you considered adding music to give the various techniques some context? Much like a good math teacher telling students when they will actually use algebra, trigonometry or calculus.

  • @mikenco
    @mikenco 3 года назад

    Thanks Ruairi! Great set of exercises for the Bodhrán, I have bookmarked this! I run (ran!.. bloody covid) a Cadet's marching band. I found best way to get kids to get comfortable, was to get them simply playing along with repetitive patterns and songs which they know, like 'When the Saints".
    Are there any great Bodhrán classics that you could teach us?

    Hey Ruairi - Thank you for these videos!! This old ukulele player is having lots of fun learning this with you! I notice that your drum is not taped - I have read about taping and don't know if I should do this to my lovely new drum. What are your thoughts?

  • @MadailinBurnhope
    @MadailinBurnhope 3 года назад +1

    would I be right in thinking that the double paradiddle would make a nice slip jig, played fast enough?

  • @laynegneiting1037
    @laynegneiting1037 3 года назад

  • @PatrickGaul
    @PatrickGaul 3 года назад +1

    Ruairi, what is the timing for the paradiddles? Can these be used for reels?

    • @pietzsche
      @pietzsche 3 года назад

      These are all even 8th notes in the basic snare forms, all of them except the double paradiddle will fit in 4, the double will work in three, and once you have them in those you can start working on swinging them to fit wherever you want really
