Analysis of Article

[edit]
  1. The introduction can be expanded,its just to short for me. It needs more information.
  2. I want to add a section in the article about concert snare technique and marching snare drum technique because it's very different.
  3. I want to also talk about the music drummers play.

Revised paragraph from article

[edit]

Original

[edit]

Snare technique is the technique used to play a snare drum.

It is studied:

  • As an end to itself by snare drummers.
  • As a way of developing stick control skill by kit drummers and players of other auxiliary percussion instruments.

Revised

[edit]

Snare technique is the technique drummers use to play snare drum and marching snare drum. Technique is important because no matter who you’re playing with it needs to look the same so they don't have to reteach anything to you.It is studied by percussionist as a way of becoming better drummers, a way of developing stick control by snare drummers and players of other auxiliary percussion instruments. Its very important because if you don't have the right technique you could be hurting yourself by playing with bad technique.[6][7]

Original Contribution

Concert Snare vs. Marching Snare

There is a big difference between playing concert snare and marching snare. For first concert you are more than likely standing still while you are playing and marching you are moving and playing at the same time. When you are marching and playing you have to move you feet to the tempo the show is, while for concert you are tapping your foot to keep time. Playing in concert band the music is either a lot easier than marching music or harder. For marching your fingers have to be more developed for you to play. In concert band your fingers don't have to be as powerful ,for you play whats on the page. The music is very different between the two in marching you are going to see more rolls and flams were in concert you will see a lot more buzzes.[8][9][10]
