Slag i slag, teknikdel

Product Description

"Slag i slag" is Bo Holmstrand's Swedish percussion note-reading method, built as a two-part series with gradually increasing difficulty. It takes the student from the very first note values to more advanced rhythmic concepts, with exercises for snare drum, cymbal and drum kit. Note: Part 1 has been discontinued and is no longer available.

Bo Holmstrand has an extensive background in both percussion and wind instruments. He worked as a music teacher for over 20 years and served as principal percussionist with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra. Experience that shows in how methodically the material is structured.

Part 1 (discontinued)

Part 1 covered the basics of note reading in 4/4 time: quarter notes, half notes, dotted half notes, whole notes, eighth notes and sixteenth notes, with a dedicated chapter for each note value. Every chapter included exercises for snare drum, cymbal, snare drum and cymbal together, duets, and drum kit (snare drum, bass drum, hi-hat, cymbal). Difficulty level: elementary.

Part 2

Part 2 builds on the same structure and the same instrumentation as Part 1, adding new topics: dynamics, pick-up notes, dotted quarter notes, dotted eighth notes, eighth-note triplets and syncopation. Exercises are again provided for snare drum, cymbal, snare drum and cymbal together, duets, and drum kit. Difficulty level: elementary.

Who It's For

Suited for students who have just started reading music for percussion and need structured, step-by-step material. Ideal for lessons where teacher and student work through one note value or concept at a time.
