This book was created to help drummers improve their abilities to play great drum fills. The material presented was originally developed over the course of several years as a result of the needs and requests of many of mystudents. As drummers practice playing fills it becomes apparent that there are a variety of issues that need to be addressed. To play fluent and creative fills a drummer needs a strong foundation of basic fill concepts thetechnique to execute the fill and musical ideas for the content of the fill. Without these key elements playing fills can be a source of difficulty and frustration. To further illustrate this idea… In some cases a drummer maypractice a particular lick or sticking pattern to a high degree of physical execution but does not have a clear understanding of how to apply it well within a musical phrase. The opposite is also sometimes true a drummer mayunderstand a simple rhythmic idea and play it very well as a fill but doesn't quite know how to employ more interesting techniques or sounds into the phrase and get something else out of it. The goal of this book is to helpdrummers achieve a balance in these necessary skills. This book presents a diverse collection of studies and exercises that clarify the basics of drum fills develop more advanced and specific techniques to use in fills andpresent many ideas for musical phrases using the techniques. The studies are presented in an order that follows a natural progression of ability however… the exercises do not need to be played in the order they are presented.Students and teachers can select exercises to design a curriculum that fits a student's needs as their skills develop. With each set of exercises you will find descriptions tips and practice instructions. Sometimes they arewritten for each individual study and when appropriate they are written for the entire chapter.

La collection des « Sessions » est née en 1997. Ces ouvrages accompagnés de « CD play along » ne sont pas des méthodes, mais des outils pédagogiques à l'usage de tous les batteurs, débutants ou avancés. C'est un concept qui n'a pas pour vocation d'imposer une nouvelle méthode d'enseignement. Ce point est important, car il permet d'éviter tout antagonisme avec les méthodes pratiquées par les professeurs et les étudiants qui au fil des années ont développé leur propre style. C'est donc un concept ouvert à tous, car tous les batteurs dans le monde ont besoin de supports audio pour apprendre à jouer de la batterie. Lorsque l'on a pas d'orchestre, on utilise des « play along ». C'est un outil pour tous les batteurs qui possèdent ainsi une banque variée de musiques de tous styles, associée à des partitions de niveaux progressifs, un dispositif pratique et idéal pour travailler. Le Drum session est donc complémentaire à TOUTE méthode. Conçu de façon progressive et accompagné de musiques de styles différents, chaque volume de cette collection est un supplément indispensable à l'apprentissage traditionnel de la batterie. Il est destiné aux batteurs qui souhaitent une approche simple, agréable et efficace du travail en orchestre, celui-ci étant la finalité de tout musicien. Ce concept original familiarise l'étudiant avec des styles musicaux actuels et variés, à l'aide de pièces originales et uniques, tout en respectant son niveau technique, lui permettant ainsi de progresser à son propre rythme. Le débutant comme le batteur confirmé y trouveront un moyen efficace et agréable de progresser. Les DRUM SESSION sont au programme des examens de batterie et également utilisées dans les écoles de musiques et conservatoires dans lesquels la batterie est pratiquée. La collection est éditée en 4 langues : français, anglais, allemand, espagnol. Le nouveau DRUM SESSION 17 est paru en juillet 2014. Il existe également 3 volumes de niveaux supérieurs (2ème cycle) regroupant des études de haut niveau.
