Five Minute Drills Classroom Percussion: w/CD
Composer: Hicks & Rath

Ever wonder what to do with the bored percussionists in your classroom while you're working fundamentals with the wind players? 

Five Minute Drill is the answer to this dilemma! Written by band directors Ralph Hicks and Eric Rath, this unique book and play-along package is geared for band directors as well as students—both in AND out of the classroom. It's loaded with the essential percussion exercises young students need in order to build lasting foundations with their rudiments, stickings, dynamics, major scales, and chromatic scales. Shorter breakdown exercises build up to form full sequences that take about five minutes a day. While your wind players are working long tones and lip slurs at the beginning of class, your percussion students can set up their practice pads or keyboards, pick an exercise, hit play on an MP3 player, and away they go! They'll be readier than ever when it's time to get into the music.
