GJHS Drumline 2009 Audition Information The Audition- This is a one-on-one audition with the director. It will consist of some warm-ups selected from the packet and a few rudiments. I will place you based on your ability, where you are most needed, and/or what position I determine will be best for you, the drumline and the entire band. As long as you have a good attitude and are willing to participate, there will be a place for you on the drumline. Preparation- Please learn the exercises in the packet!! These will prepare you for just about everything the music will throw at you. Everyone MUST learn the snare part. If you would like to play bass drum or quints, practice those parts ONLY after you can play the snare music. I realize that for some of you percussion is not your first instrument, but please try to learn as much of the warm-ups as you can. We only have time during percussion camp to put the exercises together. We will not be learning how to play the warm-ups. Please come prepared!!! Technique- There are as many techniques out there as there are instructors, but we need to all have the same approach. Included in the packet are some warm-ups that I feel are important to build a solid foundation. This will help our playing become uniform in a short amount of time. Practice each warm-up with a metronome. Start out at a fairly slow tempo (60 bpm) and gradually increase the tempo (10 bpm at a time) until your hands begin to “freak out” and/or sound quality is lost. Whatever tempo you play at should be clean and accurate with good tone quality. Remember to mark time to the exercises. Everybody, USE A METRONOME and LISTEN to it! Do not just turn it on and set it next to you. Good time keeping can not be learned through osmosis! We will use a stick height system to determine dynamics (distance from the head in inches). Tap height should be kept at 1 ½” and accent height will vary between 3” and 12”. Stick height relation to dynamics: fff – 15” Full wrist + forearm (visual only) ff – 12” Full wrist, no forearm (Vertical Stick at 90° to drumhead) f – 9” mf – 6” (Default height more or less) p – 3” pp – 1½” (Default low stroke) ppp – at the edge of the drum head as low as possible.
