Ralph Peterson *Jazz Drumming* Video: KILLER Comping & Syncopation Exercise JazzHeaven.com

[anafael1]

Been playing drums off and on for years, but decided recently to take it seriously. Jazz is a style I've always wanted to play, and this lesson is great. I love the confident way he plays, the pulse of the groove just makes me wanna jump on my kit right now! Thanks!

easy way of drumming jazz is to interupt the silence of nothing. but still keeping you counts.

the 4th exercise reminds me, referring to the real first part of it, a thing that Elvin used to do a lot!

[Speckinblack]

@ilovemetaalll It's Bosphorus turkish handmade cymbals... most of them looks like Oracle series or maybe New Orleans... Great cymbals (not only for jazz) totally recommend!

A Bosphorus Oracle, designed by and for Ralph. I am getting into Bosphorus cymbals, and am getting a 21' Master Vintage Ride. Some of the best jazz rides around. Go to Bosphorus' website and listen to ALL of the rides and compare. Great Turkish cymbals
