Overview

It begins with tips about how to practice well. It discusses how to hold the sticks and the proper stance at a snare drum. Then it introduces how to read and count music. First, there are a few exercises and then a piece of music. This is how the rest of the book is organized: It introduces a concept (quarter notes, eighth notes, accents, dynamics), provides exercises to practices each concept, and then a piece of music which includes the learned concept. It also provides pages with all the dynamic markings, note values, time signatures, and common sticking patterns so one is supplied with a reference of each. At the end, Tom Morgan cleverly adds 14 pages of his next book, A Sequential Approach to Rudimental Snare Drum, to provide a hint of what the next steps are to learning to play snare drum.
