Just gotta say that you're one of the best drum teachers on UA-cam if not the best jazz drumming teacher on here. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping others
This is the kind of drum videos we should all drummers appreciate 💯👏🏼 I've learned so much from Quincy's chart reading tips, as I have from Steve Houghton's books or Steve Fydik's books. We drummers are really the conductor in a band, and at the same time we're there to support the other musicians. We're are not drummers who only play drum solos inside our practice rooms
Outstanding! As one who does not read charts regularly, this is just what I need. I’ll be watching this one many times over. Happy Birthday Q!!! Keep us swinging.
Thanks Quincy very helpful . You nailed a lot here . Sorry to add but I love this re your comment on the conducter “ The greatest contribution jazz has made in music has been to replace the role of the conductor with a member of the ensemble who instead of waving his arms to keep time and convey mood , is an active member of the musical statement. That person is the drummer “ Elvin Jones ( quoted in Tommy Igoes book.
Congrats and thanks: You answered about all the questions I had about reading/interpreting drum charts in one single video, plus you shared a lot of wisdom, e.g. about preparing, leading, and listening to the fellow musicians and the overall sound.
I’ve just found your channel recently and may I say you have been extremely helpful. I didn’t realize you were local to me. I’m working on auditioning for my high school jazz band at Plano Senior high. You might of heard of it I wouldn’t be surprised if a few of my percussion staff knew you many of them graduated from UNT.
Hey Quincy you are a soulful guy, honest on what you are doing and should be looked after by the biggies. I was one of them biggies that are cooling out in the forests in South America, great job man , thanks
Great lesson on reading charts Quincy. Can you do a video where you break down the Hemiola. I am not understanding how you count that. My Dad use to say, if you cant count it, you cant play it! Thanks! Richie Rich
Awesome! I have an audition for cruise ship work (Landau Music) on Friday and this should be helpful. I'm a decent reader but some extra practice never hurt anyone. Cheers! :D
Mister Q ! The lesson is great ! I want to ask you how we can identify our self in the chart while playing that we are in bar 32 or bar 56 etc in the form ? Thank you ! And Happy 45 ! wish you more music health and love !
Love your videos, Quincy. So honest and full of good info. I am very interested in a video on READING RYTHMS, as you mentioned. Have been able to get by doing jazz standards and such with smaller amateur groups. Now practicing with a larger combo and trying to play arrangements. I can only fake so much and I easily get lost in the chart, so missing a lot of rests, accents, solos, etc. Total freakin' disaster. Can you recommend an online course? Thanks and hope to see doing this for a long time.
Belated happy birthday Quincy I love Nina too!!! Feel very fortunate to have seen her twice an amazing original and a truly natural and unique talent...Great lesson and superbly informative as are all of your channel teachings this one not for me as I have never learnt to read.And I'll be honest have little interest in doing which is not taking anything away from people who do read or want to read and I have nothing but admiration for guys and girls that do it's just not for me...
Hey Q! Another superb lesson as always! Are there accompanying drumless playaong tracks to go with these charts by any chance? I've had a look on your store page where I bought my odd meter playalongs but can't seem to dig them up. Thanks man!
seemingly not my forte. i watched the whole video, yet struggled to figure out where you saw all the stuff you played at the end. ah well, back to the drawing board.
mallets... what is the agenda for which, kids sign up for drum lessons.... they're given a pad and bored with method books.... and eventually, they simply have to learn about the bells. And falsely, they are maybe told that they are a genius at the bells and consigned to playing only bell parts....

Hey Quincy you are a soulful guy, honest on what you are doing and should be looked after by the biggies. I was one of them biggies that are cooling out in the forests in South America, great job man , thanks
I appreciate that Mr. Rekete!
Really nice charts and playing. Thanks for your content always Quincy!

20:19 Guilty always getting yelled at in school for disengaging. Totally affects feel. Good stuff brother!
Ha! We’ve all been there Warren.
thanks so much!
I rarely see videos that teach chart reading. Best approach to “faking it” with taste.
Great lesson on reading charts Quincy. Can you do a video where you break down the Hemiola. I am not understanding how you count that. My Dad use to say, if you cant count it, you cant play it! Thanks! Richie Rich
Good ideas sugar and Spicer:)
@@drumqtips The music is nicer with Spicer. :)

Best way to improve is on the job. Also check out Stockton Helbing’s Big Band book.
@@drumqtips Thanks Quincy for your quick response! Just ordered the digital version. Sending you some thanks.
Beautifully done, thanks. So much info in a very tight package. 😁🙏

There are but that might be something I cook up soon. Thnx Ben
Quincy, what type of camera are you using for your videos?
Look for my studio set up video. My equipment is listed in the description box of that video.
🙏🥁💖💗💗🎉Thanks a lot!
🔥🔥🔥
I cannot find the PDF(s) on the website under “Free Downloads”. Am I missing something?
It’s there now!
@@drumqtips Thanks for that!
Happy 45th, Leo Gang!
As a cruise ship drummer, reading pays the bills
Boom!
seemingly not my forte. i watched the whole video, yet struggled to figure out where you saw all the stuff you played at the end. ah well, back to the drawing board.
