I keep recommended tambourine videos after I complained that I'm not very good at it. I appreciate the efforts of this channel because this probably the 4th one I've watched now
We're happy to hear that Danny! That's what this is all about. Many more to come! You should join our Studio!! We have a free trial for a month and you can watch over 20 hours of masterclasses so far, come to our live classes, and play along with our PC Practice tracks :) www.thepercussionconservatory.com/studio
I remember as I kid, I wanna play snare drum. Then you get older, there’s not a lot of snare in the pit. Cowbell, shakers, bells, tambourines, marimba, xylophone, tympani. It’s a bit more than Drumsticks and mallets. If you can read music, you’re halfway there…
I use sandpaper that I attach to the head with double sided tape. We'll reach out to Stephen and see what he says! Hopefully he can reply here directly :)
I use surfboard wax! It’s similar to your standard beeswax, but I find it a little more tacky, which I need to get the right amount of friction. Be judicious with it though - too much rosin or wax can actually make rolling more difficult, so you might need to try scraping it off the head and start fresh. A credit card or a stiff plastic scraping tool will do the trick. Hope this helps!

The tambor in the percussion pit is a special thing, it’s rustly and jingly. More so than a woodblock…
Very true! You have to be well rounded these days to have a career in percussion!
Great work!!!
thanks Tony!
