Book Reviews 

 DRMRGRL 5 stars Excellent Reviewed in the   United States on 2020

 In addition to including all forty rudiments,   Bestall provides examples of HOW to apply   rudiments to the Drum set. A complete and   uncomplicated table of contents lets readers   know what to expect. Excellent layout. Fairly   new and current book. I am so glad that I have   this in my library-this is exactly the type of   rudiment book that I have been looking for.

  Hello Brian,

 I have to congratulate you on writing and   producing such a clear book. From start to   finish there’s no doubt about the nature of the   exercises without the reader having to resort to   lots of wordy explanations-the exercises   themselves do the talking. Moreover, a   beginner who’s learned 16th notes could start   using the book, as well as intermediate and   advanced students who want to brush up on   their rudiments, practicing them around the   drums. In effect, the book could be for   drummers at any level. You have a definite   talent for organising and presenting material   in a clear and coherent way, so I’m sure you   must be a terrific teacher. I wish you the best   of luck in selling the book, and I look forward to   your next offering.

 Tim 2019 Student. I bought this book from Brian   personally after a lesson (he’s a fantastic   teacher by the way if you’re in the Sheffield   area and can manage to grab him). I don’t   always get the time to practice as much as I’d   want but have learnt that improving my   rudiments WILL improve my playing. However   running down the Vic Firth chart on my wall   can be a bit tiresome. This book sheds a new   light by making them fun and applicable to   the whole kit. Lots of great ideas and plenty to   build on. Each rudiment is given 2 pages, the   left hand one for pad or snare and the right   hand one for the whole kit. The exercises also   contain other notes as well as the rudiments   so it’s great for brushing up your reading skills   and note values and avoid repetition of the   same thing over and over.Only scratched the   surface so far but looking forward to working   through and would recommend it as   something different for all drummers.
