Modern Jazz Drum Solos Collection

Modern Jazz Drum Solos Collection – twelve drum solos by some of today’s most influential jazz and fusion drummers – Ari Hoenig, Mark Guiliana, Brian Blade, Larnell Lewis, Dave Weckl, Ofri Nehemya and Daniel Dor – transcribed note-for-note. Together they show the vocabulary of modern jazz drumming: rhythmic displacement, odd groupings, metric modulation, gospel chops and fusion technique.

Frequently asked questions

How many songs are in the Modern Jazz Drum Solos Collection?

It includes 12 songs, each as a complete, note-for-note drum transcription.

Is this drum sheet music or drum tabs?

It is full drum notation on a five-line staff, transcribed from the original recordings – more precise than tabs, because it shows the exact rhythm of every note.

How do I get the files?

The download links appear straight after checkout and are also sent to your email. You can print the PDFs or read them on a tablet.

Can I buy the songs individually?

Yes – every song is also sold on its own. The collection is simply the cheapest way to get all of them.

Do I need to know bebop before these solos?

It helps but isn’t required – many drummers study modern and bebop solos side by side.
