Trading Fours Jazz Drums - 3 Levels of Practice

This is a practice video to help you work on your trading fours Jazz drums skill. What we'll do is take turns playing 4-measure drum solos using a bass only drum practice track from my Jazz Swing Trading Fours and Eights collection.

There are 3 levels of difficulty from beginner to advanced and tips for how to approach each level of drum soloing. It's a great way to improve your creativity, timing and overall drum soloing ability.
