20 MODERN SNARE DRUM SOLOS
By Daniel Bédard

• Twenty challenging snare drum solos.
• Rudiments
• Polyrhythms
• Odd Times
• Slow and fast tempos
• Includes audio files of all solos
• Includes audio files of drum set application ideas

Daniel Bédard presents a challenging and fun collection of contemporary snare drum solos for all styles of drummers. Prepared under the encouragement of late Wizdom Media founder Dom Famularo, the book addresses all the various aspects of musical control for the snare drummer and drum set player.

In these 20 snare drum solos, you’ll find many varied themes, including rudimental playing; triplet-oriented pieces; paradiddle-oriented solos; 3/4, 5/4, and 7/8 time signatures; single-stroke studies; slow and fast solos; roll-oriented solos; rhythmic combinations; solos with rests; and much more. Most of the solos are built around 4- or 8-bar phrases so that you can only focus on a small chunk of information if needed.

“Many topics are explored, including a more modern use of the rudiments, triplet and paradiddle centered pieces, as well as a variety of meters, rhythms, and tempos. There’s a lot of stuff to explore! Students should have fun mastering the pieces and learning some new skills in the process. I would recommend it without reservation.”
- Gary Chaffee

“Brothers and Sisters of the Drum! If you’d like a challenging, creative view of rudiments, then this book is for you. Here is a great way to work on your technique that offers many musical performance options. The solos are excellent, exploring traditional rudiments, Swiss rudiments, Daniel’s rudiments, various time signatures, dynamics, reading, and more. There’s a lot in here to digest, and it would be a super valuable resource in anyone’s study library. Very well done, Daniel!”
- David Garibaldi

“Daniel’s new book will challenge your eyes, your ears, and your hands. It will stimulate new drumming possibilities on both the snare drum and the drum kit. I highly recommend it.”
- John Riley
