In this jazz drum set lesson, you will learn 5 different up tempo applications for Ted Reed's popular book, Syncopation. These applications will help you gain more coordination and control at fast tempos. You always want to make sure you stay aware of how relaxed you are playing fast tempos. The more relaxed you are when playing fast up tempos, the more relaxed your overall feel will be. Have fun!
