About this collection

Drums & Percussion

Alfred Music's Drums & Percussion collection covers every aspect of percussion study, from snare drum fundamentals to advanced drumset styles. Core titles like George Lawrence Stone's Stick Control and Ted Reed's Progressive Steps to Syncopation remain foundational resources for percussion teachers and students. The collection spans beginner through advanced levels and includes formats ranging from printed books with online audio to digital downloads, giving you flexibility in how you teach and learn.

Who it's for

  • Percussion teachers building curriculum for snare drum and drumset students
  • Private instructors and drummers seeking method books and solo material
  • Band and orchestra directors adding percussion depth to their programs

What's inside

  • Snare drum and drumset methods spanning beginner to advanced levels
  • Jazz, rock, funk, and latin drumming techniques with master instructors
  • Mallet percussion, timpani, and world percussion methods and solos
  • Books, digital downloads, online audio, and DVD formats

Things to consider

Start your students with a method matched to their current level: Alfred's Beginning Drumset Method or Book 1 of Alfred's Drum Method work well for first-year players, while Progressive Steps to Syncopation and The Art of Bop Drumming suit intermediate to advanced drummers ready to study style-specific technique. If you're teaching ensemble or band, pair individual method books with mallet percussion and timpani resources to round out your section's musicianship. Check the format details for each title: some include online audio or companion conductor scores that amplify their teaching value.
