Syncopation for the Modern Drummer by Ted Reed

One of the most popular books for percussion today, Syncopation for the Modern Drummer by Ted Reed is a highly versatile book that can be used for almost any drummer for any application! Containing dozens of exercises that combine eighth, dotted eighths, sixteenth, and triplet combinations, this text provides material to work on timing of rhythms and syncopations.

Originally designed for use on concert or rudimental snare drum, Syncopation for the Modern Drummer can be developed for use on drum set, keyboard, timpani, and other uses by changing which hand or instrument certain notes are played on (Example: All flagged 8th notes are on left hand snare, quarter notes on bass drum, while playing swing pattern in right hand).
