Dual Bell Patterns- Chop Building/Coordination Exercises for Drum Set

Here is a great hand development/coordination exercise in the Afro-Cuban realm. The study's focus is playing repetitive rhythms with each hand while leading from your left or right side. The repeated rhythms build hand strength while playing on a not so forgiving surface, a cowbell.
These exercises and examples are all from my book Advanced Coordination for Drum Set and Hand Percussion. If you want to learn more about the book, go to www.rickdior.com and click on the "Ricks Books" page.
You can email me at [email protected] if you want to order the book.
