Combo 4: Exploring Long Phrasing (1+2+3+4+) to (7+1+2+3+) in 7/8
In this advanced 7/8 lesson, we focus on long 8th-note sticking phrases that stretch across the bar for a more fluid and musical feel.
Phrases range from (1+2+3+4+) to (7+1+2+3+), helping you build stamina, groove consistency, and deeper rhythmic control.
This combo is part of my Balkan folk drumming series on drum kit and Tapan, blending both traditional and modern approaches to 7/8 time. It’s designed to challenge your phrasing and help you develop grooves that feel natural in live performance settings.
Each lesson includes:
• ✅ PDF notation
• ✅ Slow and up-tempo video demonstrations
• ✅ A bonus demo showing how to apply it in live playing
Great for intermediate to advanced drummers wanting to take their 7/8 playing to the next level with extended, flowing stickings.
