Mel Bay Ostinatos for the Melodic Drum Set

This book is designed to take the drummer to new heights in limb independence and melodic thought. With the use of repeated patterns played between 2 or 3 limbs on the drum set (the Ostinato), the drummer plays melodic rhythms and phrases around the toms with the available limb(s) over the ostinato. With over 60 pages of Ostinato exercises plus 4 challenging solos at the end, there is no other book like it.
