Triplet Fill Concepts

Part 3: Three-Over-Four Fills With Rudiments

Welcome to the third and final lesson in our series on jazz-style triplet fills. This lesson continues with the three-over-four triplet concept and incorporates buzz rolls, double strokes, and paradiddles. In our first example, we’ll play the accents using the bass drum and ride cymbal while using buzz rolls on the snare drum.

Check out a video demonstration of the exercises below.
