Irish Spring Asian

The document discusses an exercise for improving triple stroke quality and hand-to-hand transfer consistency in drumming. It involves playing repeating patterns of right and left hand triple strokes with alternating hands. The purpose is to work on evenness, legato motions, and bringing out the second and third notes in each triple stroke. Common errors to avoid are changing the rhythm before hand-to-hand transfers.

Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to improve your triple stroke quality, as well as your hand to hand transfer consistency. This is the third of three variations of
this exercise. Try getting together with friends and splitting Irish, Asia, and African all simultaneously. It sounds awesome and is a lot of fun!
Notes: This exercise should be relaxed with very legato stick motions. At higher tempos, consider setting your metronome to click once every two beats to help maintain that laid
back feel. Really work on bringing out the 2nd and 3rd notes of each each triple stroke.
One of the most common errors in this exercise is morphing the double stroke rhythm just before the hand to hand transfer. This is an excellent exercise in 'finishing the
phrase' -- the last double before the alternating eighth notes should be played with the same exact meter as the preceding triple strokes.
