Описание к видео "The Rudimental Ritual" by Marvin "Smitty" Smith played on the drumset (now with pdf)

Years ago I´ve been given a copy of Mr. Smiths´version of Alan Dawsons "Ritual" and it has been a big part of my practising routine ever since. To get the most out of it I´ve been playing it with brushes and sticks on different surfaces and also with different foot patterns. At some point of time I have had the idea to tranfer the whole thing to the drumset and began to look for ways to apply the different parts what´s generally considered to be " the classic Jazz drumset".
My goal was to create an exercise that would help my drumset playing overall, but especially making me move around the kit more fluently and work on hitting different parts of the kit with different limbs in unison.
here´s what I´ve come up with - and you can download a pdf for free here

but of course there are many more different ways for you to creat your own version(s) :)
I would´ve loved to also include the sheet music as written by Mr. Smith and have tried to reach him and ask for his permission. But unfortunately I have not been able to get in contact, so I stay away from doing so in order to not infringe any copyrights.
But I´ve put subtitles to each part of the video composed of the names of the rudiments and also the numbers of each part that Mr. Smith has used in his ritual.

Please note, that I´ve omitted some repeats in order to shorten the piece a bit for this video. I´ve also discovered that I´ve memorised 2 parts in the wrong order and been playing the ritual like this for years - therefore Nr. 20 is followd by 22 and then 21... And I´ve completely omitted part Nr.13 because I couldn´t come up with a usable drumset application.
I´ve played this on a Gretsch drumset from 1981 and a Ludwig Hammered Bronze snaredrum.
The cymbals are a 22" New Stamp K Istanbul on the right, a 20" K Zildjian Prototype and a pair of 14" Hi Hats made by the late grat cymbalsmith Johan VDS
