To the world of the sum drum
The basics explain carefully, and lecturer of this way 30 years guides the sum drum experience in the world of force. After all, as for the biggest charm of the sum drum,; is low, and is loud sound and simplicity. The sum drumbeat said to be similar to heartthrob feels like making wakuwaku feel fun for some reason just to hear. You leave out difficult thing, and, at first, please clap casually.
We will challenge ensemble with lecturer if getting used to drumbeat. We practice simple phrase and play on rhythm of bass which lecturer beats. At first, it does not readily go well, but it is said and feels being excellent at moment when negotiations were engaged. Finally, lecturer instructs that there is through one piece one by one slowly.
We challenge solo only for oneself
Of course swatting is not drum in music that we were able to decide! We hit drum to rhythm of bass which lecturer carves with freely and challenge session with family and friend and. Anyway, it is free and is lighthearted and can challenge anyone. That is place where the sum drum is fantastic.
