INTRODUCTIONIn the early twentieth century the

drums comes as a result of joining in one instrument and one interpreter, the whole rhythm section. In the street bands, jug bands, brass band or rhythm section is comprised of two or more percussionists and offered his concerts outdoors. The need to give concerts in closed rooms and smaller, promoted the development of this wonderful instrument.

The drummers that began playing drums had to evolve the rhythms played on a single percussion instrument, and adapt to the different elements of the set: kick, snare, hi hat, cymbals, toms ...

The drum joined the African roots, adopted the rudiments of the Central European tradition of the snare and were mixing with new styles that were creating the result of miscegenation: blues, country, rock, jazz, be bop ...

It remains exactly the same. We continue to evolve, fusing, developing new blends, without losing sight of the benchmark.

We show how are the different types of shuffle, how to interpret a blues,

and afrobeat rythm, or how to play the second

line.We show through

hemiola we interpret all these

styles.
