- As the U.S. Civil War ends and slavery is abolished, drummers begin experimenting with ways that a single player can do the job of an entire percussion section. Within a few years, the technique known as "Double Drumming" becomes popular in theater orchestras and dance bands.
In this 16-part series, Vic Firth and Daniel Glass will be looking at 100 years of drumming evolution. Learn about the key events and advancements that shaped the drumset we know and love today!

Excellent work! As a lover of history alone, this is intriguing!
Love this series already...I'm not typically a drum DVD buyer but this kind of thing I feel every drummer should be exposed to.
This and your 'century project' that is purchased have basically helped me get a 1st in my degree. Thankyou Daniel Glass! You're awesome.
Great editing and sound design, 2 of my favorites. Drums and editing, if there was a bbq and beer in site I would be in heaven
Awesome again Daniel! I'm gonna pick up this DVD real soon man! Keep up the work that reminds us that there is actually more to life than what is happening right this minute. This is especially important for kids.
Thanks George - there is a real cool poster that goes with this series. Send me the address to the shop, and I'll have VF send a bunch out to you - for your teaching rooms, etc.
Thanks a million Daniel! Always love your material. I'd love the posters too. Address is: InnerBeat Drum School, 1368 Tennessee Ave, Pittsburgh, Pa, 15216
That demonstration of double drumming was amazingly cool! I never knew they did this before bass drum pedals!
@1:16 - Strange that you never mentioned the economic impact of paying the wages of five drummers when you could pay for just one.
And it wasn't the drummers who thought about combining the drum set, it was actually a series of band leaders trying to make their band profitable and stay on the road that brought about this awareness and interest in consolidation.
Absolutely true. If you check out my Century Project DVD (upon which this video series is based), I talk much more about this subject in greater detail. This TH-cam series just scratches the surface compared to what's in the DVD.
@@DanielGlassDrums is there old recordings in your dvd ? I'm searching but I don't find any of the first marching bands
great contribution! historically accurate and enlightening! thanks so much.
Thanks to the drummer whoever invent that or else id me homeless today

Great Series
Great doc on drums........Can't beat it!............heh-heh
This video was very helpful! I know im gonna get yelled at for this, but left hand holds the traditional grip
You're welcome. The left hand does hold the traditional grip ... unless you are a left handed drummer (which I am), in which case it's the other way around.
Hallelujah👑🎉
this is very intresting
i agree
Gaston Hernandez....YES IT IS!!!
Ok but I really want to know what’s the song playing in the background
Hey Pachuko by Royal Crown Revue
What sort of songs/music were played with double drumming? Also, what's the difference between "From Ragtime to Rock" and "The Century Project" the descriptions are very similar.
Wow. Impressive.
Love it. Thanks ;)
what order am I supposed to watch these videos in? there's no playlist
you're kidding right? the part with a number after it doesn't give you a clue?
those weren't there when I asked
Which part of the US was created the double drumming?
Many parts. The drum set evolved throughout the country, although its first use in jazz was in New Orleans. Watch the next few episodes to learn more about that.
nice collar from 1972
Open collar look like what's on the DVD cover was already popular in the 1940s/50s.
Merica baby
🇺🇸
This guy never heard of Congo Square.
Someone knows what bass drum is it? Brand and size
1920s Ludwig and Ludwig. Pretty sure the dimensions are 26 x 14.
@@DanielGlassDrums thank you very much!!
👍
whats the song in intro?
Andris Ērglis Hey Pachuco
2:39 thats indian folk nagada style drumming
Check out Sam Bennett's (Polarity records) amazing photos of unusual, unconventional and historic drum kits/sets

Wait did he say contribute more to American music😂😂 they had been contributing the entire time.
Drumsticks
Person drumset in 1801?
song at the beginning?
It's the drum solo video from this series. You can find it on dw drums' channel
I think it is "Hey Pachuco" by Royal Crown Revue (Daniel play drums in the band)
MagZ1905 was it daniel or mark stern..of youth brigade...mark was in the movie the mask but i dont know if he was the drummer on the recording
eeeee macarena
Called "East Side Rumble," based on Royal Crown Revue's "Hey Pachuco." You can hear the entire song, as well learn much more about the history of the drum set on the "Century Project" DVD.
This guy left handed? His underhand grip is in his right hand.
Yes he is, which is why he plays a left-handed setup as well (snare on the right) :)
Although bag pipe music is in fact enema bop it really stinks...
Is this series kid friendly ?
Yes, absolutely.
Absolutely!
Did he really just say there was no blues right after the civil war?!?!
Joe Hillmeyer Definitely a contentious statement. Blues wasn't commercially accessible, hadn't been formalized, not until sometime between 1900 and 1910. But it did exist, in a sense, as work songs and hollers and spirituals. If one includes those types of song in the blues category, blues has been in the U.S. since slavers first brought African/African-American slaves to the U.S..
But if you're a stickler about blues form (12 bars, I-IV-V progression, &c.) and publication/standardization, blues didn't exist until 1900-1910. But that's also a troublesome argument to make; it'd be to say that anthropologists, composers, and publishers of Western European descent defined what blues "really" is. I dunno. Hard to say how to look at it, at least for me. I'm no expert, just an enthusiast.
How about you, Joe?
+Joe Hillmeyer and Aaronson Bell. Thanks for your thoughts on this segment. The question I pose in the video is "What was the most POPULAR kind of music in America in 1865?" When I say there "was no blues, to speak of," it's because blues as an identifiable music style did not yet exist.
Certainly, the elements that would come to define blues field hollers, work songs, spirituals and the "ring shouts" of Congo Square - were already in practice, but no one was documenting them in any way, and they were not on the radar screen of the vast majority of Americans. The first official "blues" song was not actually produced as sheet music until about 1909, and an identifiable style of music called "blues" (using the 12-bar format, etc) did not become widely popular in the US until the 1920s.
+Aaronson Bell Well blues was around. So was jazz. The majority of the country (white folk) didn't enjoy listening to this type of music until the 1900's when the Harlem Renaissance started up in New York.
drum started in china 3000 year ago
In Africa before that
I believe it was Africa
@@johnbensinger4931 Every ancient culture had drums
Ni subtítulos tiene😑
Edward DEE DEE Chandler invented the drumset.........and his is BLACK
No, but he used a type of overhang drum pedal visible in a photo.
I appreciate what you're trying to say in terms of the history of the modern drum kit but in your intro you say that before 1865 there were no blues or popular music other than marching bands. This is clearly not true.There was no jazz eh? Where do you think the rhythms came from and the melodies ? out of thin air ?
Well to be fair...i believe you're thinking of the 1900s. Jazz and blues really weren't around until the LATE 1800s/early 1900s. Around the time he's speaking of (1865), 'bands' as we think of them today were not as common; we had marching bands, military bands, orchestras, etc. Nearly all popular music was in the form of marches, orchestral pieces, etc. And of course, different countries had different native styles of music at the time, but jazz and blues STILL were not prevalent until the late 1800s or so
No popular music before 1865..religious music? No dance music provided by the slaves and indentured servants for the the plantation owners' parties which included classical pieces by visiting artistes, quadrilles, polkas etc. There are examples of popular music - even written down from the 1830s, Daddy Rice, Jim Crow Blues etc.There's an interesting site at www.americanmusicpreservation.com/Americanmusictimeline.htm#17thcentury. The history of the banjo is also instructive..en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banjo.. Best wishes,
Bob Jones He's said in another comment, he's referring to POPULARIZED blues/jazz, in america; which there was basically none of.
Sure there wasn't jazz as we understand it today, but the roots were there, to start the piece to say there was no popular music apart from marching bands ( which weren't necessarily popular depending who's side you were on), is ahistorical.
The music that is referred to as jazz, and that was originally called jass, developed during the 1910s out of several genres, mainly early blues, marching bands and ragtime. Blues as a style of music developed in the late 1800s but didn't sound like what we call music today until the early 1900s. So 1865, there was definitely no jazz or blues. YES there were precursors, but since one of them was marching bands, and that's where drumming was developed in those days, this documentary clearly makes sense to focus on that, while your comment makes no sense at all.
No Blues he says.........wrong......wrong.....wrong.....
The blues certainly existed in the 1800s, but was not written down or "named" as such until the early 20th century and did not become a popular "style" until the 1920s.
@@DanielGlassDrums But the way it was phrased was saying, "No Blues to speak of". Yes, Blues existed even then whether it was considered popular or not.
@@BluesCat1980 If it wasn’t named “the blues” until the 20th century, then no one could have spoken of it in that term in the 19th century. Hence my use of the phrase “so to speak.“ Regardless, your point is taken, and I’ll do my best to be clearer in future.
@@DanielGlassDrums I myself am a Blues historian. I am involved with the Blues Foundation and teach kids about Blues in schools. I guess I'm just a huge fan of Blues and the history of it from its very humble beginnings to a worldwide phenomenon.
@@BluesCat1980 - Fantastic! Checked out some of your TH-cam videos and you are a very accomplished musician - great stuff. Love the T-bone Walker style on guitar! Hit me up via the email on my website, danielglass.com, and we can chat further! Peace, and all the best to you and yours.
So, before this western people have no Idea about the percussions and how those many kind of rhythms can be applied to...Even though in Asia and Middles east where the drums are like the backbone of music and dance
Drums were used before 1865 just not in a drum kit. This is the history of the drum kit, not drums.
Band is Marching Band.. nothing more
subtitle in spanish please!.
the english is not the unique lenguage on the world.
Gaston Hernandez no mms wey
How rude of you to criticize the American company Vic Firth for making a free instructional video in the language of of the country in which they are headquartered.
Spanish isn't the unique language of the world either, so maybe tell your Spanish speaking people to make world-class drumstick companies that make the best damn sticks on the planet, and then they can make the video in Spanish.
I can hire a translator for spanigh subtitles if you send me the money
