Drum Corps on Parade (a snare solo)

[devonman90]

i just got assigned this solo, i have the paper infront of me right now, how long did it take you to master this solo?

[thedustofakyle]

Hey, i did this solo for solo and ensemble. just watch your dynamics man. And your tempo was everywhere haha(not to be a dick). and watch the thumb on your left hand, it was coming off of the stick haha.

[crazzyboy696]

not to be a pronunciation nazi, but "corps" is pronounced "core"

[WackySketch]

@crazzyboy696 wait it is?? ohh haha i never knew that. How come they spelled it that way tho?

[braddroid]

Are you good with a traditional grip too?

[DeansterTheSnow]

No real dynamics, and you sorta were off time wise, but otherwise amazing!

[jazzbandgeek]

@DeansterTheSnow you are god. please criticize all drummers, ever. cuz you SCHOOL these nuuubs.

[king50g1]

this is my snare solo im working on right now. im in 8th grade, pretty nice, but u definitely need to work on those accents

[McJohnGr]

Your hands move like marionetes.Plus just watch your left hand only...Its gonna break!!!

[barndrummer]

Nice job. This solo was meant to be played with the tap strokes to be as low as possible and the accents to be as high as possible. Also your grace notes were way to high :)

[venom85019]

Your all over the place dude, control control control, watch your speed too. Everything else seems fine. This was my jury piece on snare a few years ago.

[synGaTes212]

Your grace notes on the flames are way to high.

[IAmANap]

-.-

practising on a pad is ok but you should play it an a snare drum when you make a video

[ilikepancakes13]

@IAmANap You should try PRACTICING your spelling! If you are going to insult someone.....please use correct spelling.

[IAmANap]

@ilikepancakes13 well it shouldn't be an insult more an advice because that peace sounds so lovely on a snare drum

ok i made some very nice mistakes in that message but on the internet usually nobody cares ;)

[pikathebudgie1234]

I want the music score of drum corps on parade.

[vietchinito]

Hm, cool, i'm doing this solo for solo ensemble in a few weeks.

you seem to have the rhythm down quite well

you're just dragging and rushing in a few places

and your heights and technique could be adjusted

other than that, it's pretty good

[MusicVidKid777]

im doing it for solo and ensemble i think like thi or next saturday, this helps alot

[Mrskellig]

Playing this for a solo contest in march

[jkdrumhead1024]

Hey man, it sounds good. as someone pointed out, it is pronounced CORE. the biggest things you would want to work on would be your grip, your tempo, and cleaning up the double strokes. and watch the stick heights on flams and right after accents. but it does sound real good

[behindthedrum10]

nice pad... =D what kind is it?

[behindthedrum10]

ps... nice playin.. i'm using this for one of my audition pieces for college.. totally stoked =D

[GP3PocketSnare]

Haha, It's pronounced drum CORE not drum CORPSE.

[shoe947few320]

what's the name that drum pad

[jfrimet]

not bad man... the earlier you start getting control and working on technique... the better of a percusionist you can become cant run before you can walk.. right?

[ponysunny]

i'm pretty impressed, really good for a 9th grader. I would get some help on your techniqye though, especially in the left hand

[Mamothman89]
