I like flams. As much i hated in past. Flams are good in warm-up as they are in execution. Don’t abuse, as usual, ‘cos too much notes are only too much notes and, as great musicians say, “less is better”. But when you’re practicing sometimes “much is better”. I wrote down some basics exercises i like to play on practice pad as well on the snare: rudiments full of flams. Not so hard, just a warm up.

Acciaccature o ‘flams’: si tratta di abbellimenti molto utili dal punto di vista musicale, ma ancora di più nello sviluppo della tecnica delle mani (e della doppia cassa) sia sui tamburi, rullante in particolare, che sul practice pad. Ho trascritto qualche esercizio basilare che mi piace fare come riscaldamento e che propongo agli allievi.
