Snare drum technique VII - Various stickings for "Scheherezade" - David Valdés.

On this video, David Valdes shows various stickings you can use to play the 3º movement of "Scheherezade".
Doble and triple strokes, alternating, one-handed... All these stickings give us different phrasing options, making for us always having resorts to suit the musical context.

Exactly...! The more ways we can play something, the richer our musical expression will be, allowing us to fit any musical situation. Thank for watching and commenting.

Wow nice! I thought for sure the last one was a joke, but it was great. I have to check out that Tony Ames guy!

You can have a look at other of my videos (Snare Drum Technique IV-The Roll), where I explain the roll and how to control rebounds. This last way of playing "Scheherezade" was inspired by Tony Ames. Check his website.

How do you do the last one? I can't manage to get 6 even hits out of one stroke like that.
