Mallet Warm-ups
Ok, so I know that this is Drumset Connect, but I am currently only able to play percussion such as the xylophone and such due to my ankle condition.
Right now I am teaching high-school kids from my old school mallets, and am trying to write warm-ups that are interesting and not boring, yet teach them to move around the keyboard with ease.
I have made a double stops exercises, scales/green scales exercises, and doubles with different notes. Does anyone think I should incorporate rudiments such as paradiddles and double strokes into my warm-ups?
This is elementary marching music, and I am making a majority of it the B flat major, C major, A flat major, F major, and G major scales.
If anyone has any suggestions on teaching these nutcases, please tell me! |
