Alfred Music A Tribute to Charley at a Glance

As a student of renowned drum teacher and author, Charley Wilcoxon, Sperie Karas learned his technique extensively and presents Alfred Music A Tribute to Charley, a tribute to his teacher. Wilcoxon was known for his emphasis on rudimental drumming, as percussive techniques provide important building blocks for complex rhythms and fills. As such, he also wrote numerous solos and etudes based on Rudimentals.

This edition adds modern elements to rudimental drumming and contains 50 dynamically worked out solo pieces that give innovative, inspiring impulses to the rudimental playing of drummers. Thus, in addition to solos in 2/4, 4/4, and 6/8 time, you'll find odd time signatures, meter changes, swing feels, and ideas for your own interpretation on the drum set. Take your rudiment playing to the next Level and get to know it from a whole new side.
