Developing Melodic Language on the Drums

The purpose of this book, by Wayne Salzmann, is to give you the necessary tools to develop an authentic musical language on the drum set based on melodic content. The exercises and concepts provided here are designed to inspire creativity and challenge you to reach new levels of awareness and musical ability. Focusing on the melodic themes and phrases keeps the exercises rooted in a musical context rather than focusing only on independence or technical exercises. Using themes and melodies to develop strategies for comping and soloing helps to connect to the phrasing, form, and foundation of the music.

AREA FUORI TEMA

Da sempre la AMD communication è sinonimo di supporto alla musica e all’arte in generale attraverso le sue riviste www.planet-drum.com, www.guitar-nbass.com e www.areanote.it. Si è sempre distinta nel dare voce a musicisti emergenti e a band interessanti, da Elio Rivagli con le sue prime apparizioni con importanti artisti su palchi nazionali e non solo ai Thegiornalisti divenuti oramai una realtà; da Vince Pastano, chitarrista stabile di Vasco Rossi a Leo Di Angilla che con le sue percussioni movimenta i ritmi di Jovanotti.
Oggi una nuova realtà ha catturato la nostra attenzione, un progetto culturale che sposa le idee della stessa AMD communication e che prende come riferimento l’arte a 360 gradi, un’associazione che ha come obiettivo la diffusione e l’insegnamento come unica via di uscita per non perdere la memoria storica di un popolo come il nostro che ha sempre fatto dell’arte un vanto da esportare: AREA FUORI TEMA

WE CAME AS ROMANS

Brotherhood lasts forever. No matter what happens, those bonds endure in memories and moments. WE CAME AS ROMANS hold a similar link between them. After nearly 15 years together, countless sold out shows, critical acclaim, and over 250 million streams, the Michigan quintet—Joshua Moore [guitar], Dave Stephens [vocals], Lou Cotton [guitar], Andy Glass [bass], and David Puckett [drums]—weathered their darkest time and emerge stronger in the name of a fallen brother and member: Kyle Pavone.
