Hi, Everyone.
I'm learning to write drum parts in arranging this week and have downloaded
Latin Guide for Drummers by John Rae from NLS to help me get a handle on the
Latin style.
Are there any percussionists on list who would be willing to look at the
braille with me to help me understand the finer points of this type of
notation? I understand the durational values attached to the notes, but
don't understand things like which clef is being used, why different pitches
are used for the snare drum, etc, etc.
Thanks,
Dani
