Book one has been a very successful beginners method for almost 20 years. In 2018 we slightly updated it to make it a little more modern and we've also changed the cover.

It starts from the very beginning and takes you through the core rhythms in the snare drum section and then the drum kit, timpani and tuned percussion sections. 'Module 1' prepares you for taking grade 1 in either snare drum, drum kit, or tuned percussion and 'Module 2' introduces all the skills you'll need for grade 2.

At the back of the book there are some ensemble arrangements for percussion groups and class room pieces.
