By Joe Morello
On 01st Nov 2023
Joe Morello advanced the idea of endurance exercises with his Fill-In Studies included in his book Master Studies. These are not “drum fills,” instead they are endurance exercises built on the idea of filling in between the primary rhythm of the exercise. Groups of Four with Fill-Ins These fill-ins are the next part of Joe Morello’s Fill In Studies that were introduced last month, and also appeared in Joe’s book Master Studies. This month you will be playing accented groups of four with one hand, while filling in with the other hand. Again, after learning to play these as written, you should practice them with the stickings reversed.
