wonderful and eye-opening lesson for an 85 year old newbie drummer. Many thanks.
Better late than never! I'm 75 years old, been playing since I was 15 years old and the more I learn, the more there is to learn. Learning drums is a wonderful adventure. I started in rock and switched over to jazz about a year later, when I discovered Joe Morello's, "Take Five". He showed wonderful skill at a low volume.
By the time I turned 18, I was moonlighting as a jazz drummer in local resorts, playing for dance parties and watching couples dance to my rhythm. What a great feeling! I've been playing part-time ever since.
Also, learn all you can about playing with brushes which is another great adventure.
Don't worry about speed. It will come naturally. Focus on time, volume and rudiments. I'm still learning and I try to practice everyday.
Wow...
This video is an overwhelming amount of ammunition for self-study. There are so many ideas here which, on their own, could lead to hours of practice/playing/fun. I wont claim that I'm going to try them all - but for 6 minutes spent on a very simple concept, I'd say this video is invaluable.
I'm now a Maricle fan!
Sherrie Maricle is one of the worlds great drummers and educators
And not once did she say "hey you tube cats' and offer some corny life lesson, just clear instructions, which was very refreshing.
YES!
Didn't drop any names either.
I love her snare sound, Thanks for the Upload!
+Fatsacks Allday Glad you enjoyed her work! We'll be posting more lessons by Sherrie over the coming weeks! Please share the video

Sounds great, and it looks like the cheapest, entry-level steel Tama snare you can find. Those things are like $50 on Craigslist all day.
A great player can make any functional instrument sound a million bucks, and with acoustic instruments ( like a drumkit ) that's even more obvious than with electric ones.
So do I. How tight should the batter side of my snare be. It's pretty tight now but doesn't give me the rebound I want. I want that crisp snare sound. I have added a wider snare wire and tried adjusting the wire to different tensions but I can't seem to find that crisp sound. I'm a rookie so forgive my ignorance. My resonant side is table top tight and so is my batter side and I'm afraid to tighten it any more. Any suggestions? I'll wait for a reply. Thanks ahead of time.
No sweeter sound to my ears than a skilled a drummer
She is soooooo much better than a younger player beating the daylights out of his/her kit with little-to-no skills. "If you can't play well, play loud!"
Sherrie is a master!
God, I love jazz drummers
ME ,TOO ~ !!!LOL.👍🎵🐉🎤🎶💜💕💞💜💜💜
one of those videos I keep coming back to...
Covered so much ground in only 6 minutes. Amazing player and teacher.
Wow! Great sounding snare. Smooth hands. Woman's got game.
Also, she has wonderful communication skills.
I love the snare. I just commented this elsewhere, but it looks like a real low budget, 1980s Tama Rockstar DX. Like an Acrolite, it's hilarious to see this "cheap" snare in the hands of a master.
I like the ride too :D
thanks Sherrie-I play sax all through school, now Im just a self taught drummer, I've been trying to work on my fills. Ill keep watching!
This is a great video, and excellent teacher, clear, detailed explanation & demonstration. Would be nice to study with someone like that. Guess these videos are the next best thing. :)
Thanks Sherrie! Great lesson and greatly appreciated.
I’ve known about her - saw her at Weekend of Jazz 2023 this year. Thank you Sherrie for this video. I’m always doing rudiments around the kit - now to practice these new tips. 👍🏻👍🏻🥁
Wow. I can listen to her for hours! It's like gold for my ears! So much knowledge.
Takes 9 lifetimes to swing that hard!
@Niels Myrner I knew I recognized your name! Your "intro to jazz" videos are what got me started on drums. What a fantastic little series they are. I appreciate you! Love and thanks from Youngstown, OH.
Very smooth jazz playing, Sherrie! I am OK at jazz drumming, but I know jazz chops when I hear them, and you have them!
Great lesson Sherrie, looking forward to more!
Drum Central me too!
Drum Central :0)
Fantastic job Sherrie! LOVE the 32nds w/BD on the accented tap! Very well articulated, and great material! I'm def a fan.
That opened my eye to something that should have been quite obvious! Thanks, Sherrie! Great lesson!
Fantastic lesson. Excellent control, clean, accents and dynamics in their proper places, the push and pull naturally of the bar lines, etc. Thanks for sharing.
This was a really great lesson, Sherrie is a fantastic drummer and, even more importantly, a great teacher!
Love her playing. The kit sounds awesome.
I would like to thank Sherrie Maricle for using her gift as one of the worlds Great jazz drummer's to helping & sharing her awesome drum skills with the world !!!
I have been drumming for about two years now and have really began to look into the jazz/swing style of drumming. Thanks for the great video and examples! This will definitely help me on my journey!
Amazing teacher and instructor. Belongs in ANU, UT and Berkely.
So inspiring! I'm nowhere near this level but I love your style, you teach very clearly and make me feel like I understand the concepts and have improved my drumming based on your lessons. Thank you so much for producing these videos! Really top-notch.
Wow that kit sound soooo nice. real tight and clear, I hear every single stroke.
Absolutely fantastic!! I'm keeping you in my favorites.
I love hearing the end of the tom notes sing when the vocal track pops back in
I have seen many giving lessons online on the drums. You are the finest teacher I've encountered so far. I imagine anyone having one on one classes with you is most fortunate. Thank you so much for doing this.
I absolutely love this snare sound
👍👏💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
THANKS SHERRIE!!! You blow my mind. (Literally.)
What a great teacher 👌🏼
VERY professional, high quality, instructional video!!! That snare sound is worth a million dollars, wow!
Great lesson. I've always really appreciated drummers using odd numbered patterns with a rest.. its that space between the notes that makes it so interesting.
Really thank you for all the videos, can't thank you guys enough!
I especially appreciate by the expression in her eyes the way she hears what she’s playing
wow. great vid. super quick teaching without skipping steps, and done at different speeds. good work. definitely subscribing.
Love sherrie! Met her this semester
Great lesson from a superb teacher and drummer!
Really great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
You're an excellent teacher. Good voice and presentation.
Wow!! Such great and valuable instruction. Awesome lesson!
You're a wonderful musician. Fantastic approach and thrilling application! It's a pleasure to watch you play. Thanks for creating and posting.
Very good lesson. One simple idea that can go for miles and is very cool sounding. Thanks!
Excellent useful lesson, with a lot of applications ! Thanks !
about to started my 5 yr old daughter on drums it's so amazing to be able to show her endless examples of great female drummers of all ages on TH-cam. Great lesson also Sherrie.
Nicely done! Good stuff!
Supreme skills. Heading to the woodshed with this first thing in the morning! Thanks for sharing.
What a great sound. I could listen to her drum all day.
Great playing and also such a great teacher
... great chops and very well-planned presentation. Thanks.
She’s great 👍🏻 really enjoyed these exercises!!
So smooth in her movement, it's insane
I like how she used the sticking, feel and timing of the triplet to show how the 5 stroke can swing. She also illustrated (by showing, not talking) on how important it is to be loose when you're trying to swing! I'm going to work on this right now! I have gotten this feel (somewhat) by doing singles but doing doubles can be a greater economy of motion; getting more with less effort.
Excellent explanations and examples. Thank you.
Great Lesson Sherrie!Thanks
Really cool stuff. Lovely playing and nice swing style on the trades
Brilliant drumming and teaching!
Thanks Sherrie. Good stuff. Gotta practice now.
Great video and great playing!
Great drummer and teacher great sounding kit many thanks

Great lesson. Subscribed.
Wow!! Amazing skillz,, incredible control. just WoW!!
Clean. Great teacher. First time seeing her and I like her a lot.
Oh.Me, too !👍💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
I like her a lot. She knows her stuff🤟🏾
Wow! Great vid! Great lesson! Great sound! Great drummer!
I'm glad to hear a pro talk about the floor tom "fighting back". I've wondered for years if I was just doing something wrong but never seen it referenced, and never had a teacher talk about it. BTE, it would be great to have a PDF that transcribed some of these ideas. Thanks for a great series!
Really nice clip and lesson.
Quite a good demonstration. TY
Sherrie your awesome!! Thank you.
Yupp....i need to keep practicing. She's a great drummer.
Great teaching approach. Able to execute it and more importantly communicate it. Thanks.
Great hands and technique!
Nicely executed, clean and clear.
Yes !! Being clean/ clear is one of the most important things when it comes to the sound & one of the most difficult things to do when it comes to musical instruments / music ! That sets you apart away from others ( both technically/ skilfulness & sound wise )! Pianos , guitars ,bases ,drums !!!,even vocals especially when we hit very very high notes ! 👍💜💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
yay! she's a great teacher! I wanna have classes with her
Thanks you very much for this lesson. On a technical note, the white background really helps seeing the movements which is really interesting.
Wow! Incredible lesson! Thank you😃
She’s awesome! Such a great sounding kit also
Truly is
Dope lesson! Keep em coming
Thank You Sherrie!
Great lesson. Thank you
wow amazing sound
Excellent drum educator!
Great lesson! You are obviously a very accomplished teacher with a great amount of teaching experience behind you. I've always wondered how all those jazz drummer's did those little things and now, finally, I learn it's the five stroke roll! How on earth did I miss that over all of these years?
Glad you liked it! If you want to see a full rundown of some of these fundamentals, check out this playlist th-cam.com/video/gFfQ3d5LBr4/w-d-xo.html

I agree, great lesson!! I finally know how to play a 5 stroke roll. I will be practicing and incorporating her instructions. enjoyed your drumming. I look forward to watching some of your other lessons. As a female drummer, thank you for your inspiration.
Great stuff. Thank you
What a great teacher! I wish she was close to me I would love to study with her.
Awesome ! She’s brilliant !!
She's the mother of drumming I never knew existed! I want more Sherrie lessons!
Thank you very much, I am learning from you and I subscribed.
