Cross-Rhythmic Exercise in 7/8 - 1

  • This coordination exercise is a three-measure cycle
  • The accent pattern is groups of three sixteenth notes, and it takes three measures for an accent to fall on the first beat.
  • I played the line twice as written, and then twice again but doubling the unaccented notes.
  • I played a wood block with my left foot, but you can also play the hi-hat or the bass drum or both.
NB : This exercise isn't part of my Time Manipulation Drum Book.
