Make sure you practice this and improve your timekeeping skills in order to develop a consistent tempo when playing. The toms, or tom-toms, are mounted either above the bass drum or held up by adjustable legs. In a five-piece drum kit, there are two types of toms: the rack toms and the floor toms. The floor and rack toms are most commonly used during drum fills.
Like the other drums in the kit, the toms are generally made from wood or metal. In addition to these basic parts of a drum set, you can also add cymbals like the hi-hat, crash, and ride cymbals. These add accents to your music and can serve as transitions from one passage in a song to the next. The first piece of drum equipment that we recommend for students is free and readily available: your own body.
Start by tapping along to your favorite songs and focus on playing along with the drummer or another instrument in the song. We also recommend buying a rubber practice drum pad in the early stages, but if money is an issue, you can always use your drum sticks on a book, pillow, or any other firm, durable surface.
One final piece of equipment that will help you begin your journey of learning how to play the drums is a metronome. Drummers are expected to be able to maintain a steady tempo, and nothing keeps a steadier tempo than a metronome. Metronomes come in both analogue and digital. This will save you a lot of headaches later on.
The accent feature on your metronome can change the feel of what you are playing and help you explore different time signatures. While time signatures like these may intimidate beginners at first, it is commonplace in other musical traditions to explore these rhythms from the start.
In Indian classical music, for example, percussionists give equal credence to common meters and odd ones. There are essentially two ways to hold drum sticks: matched grip and traditional grip. Your thumb should rest opposite your index finger on the stick; this pinching between your thumb and index finger is your fulcrum or pivot point. Matched grip has three different variations: German, American, and French. Turn your hands to a degree angle. With this grip, you can use your wrists for power and your fingers for control.
Hold the sticks so that your thumbs face the ceiling and your palms face each other. The fulcrum rests between your thumb and index finger. Traditional grip is often used for jazz music and drum lines. Place the stick in the webbing between your thumb and index finger, and rest the stick on the cuticle of your ring finger. Rest the tip of your thumb on the first knuckle of your index finger. Your middle finger should rest lightly on the top of the stick. The fulcrum, or pivot point, is between your thumb and index finger.
As you advance, you can decide which grip style works best for you. Uploaded by SeanFagan on June 14, Internet Archive's 25th Anniversary Logo. Search icon An illustration of a magnifying glass. User icon An illustration of a person's head and chest.
