Conor's Corner: Syncopation in Paradiddles























Another episode of Conor's Corner today, brought to us by the venerable Irish Jazz drummer Conor Guilfoyle.

Today, Conor offers us a practical way to develop interesting paradiddle combinations while using Ted Reed's classic Syncopation text. I've been messing around with this myself all week on my drum pad and have found this to be a very good method in terms of developing fluency with paradiddles, all in the context of melodic phrasing.
