Making Colors on the Drums in Jazz 

Therapeutic. I love this sort of artful expressive playing, underrated component of the kit.

The drumming is great but the way she speaks is fantastic, every word has a begining and end and all the letters in the word are clear and crisp, just lovely to listen to.

Someone get this lady a stick bag.

I just don't understand the dislikes, what four? this is just about bringing realy artistic colours like nature and emotions in to drums and music wich I think is fantastic! Awsome job!!!

I love this, it's awesome how she makes everything simple to understand, which is perfect for a beginning jazz drummer like myself (I play mainly extreme metal)

I am sure other drummers will appreciate it when one licks their kit for a mysterious sound at jams..

I could feel these colors man

This is a fine example of the difference between applying artistry and feel vs. overemphasizing chops. I make the mistake sometimes of wanting to wow people with complexity ... too much, too loud, too frequently. The more you say, the less it is heard sometimes- no matter how advanced the technique or theory. Now go listen to Coltrane's "Ballads" album where he plays just the melody for every song. Its the dynamics that drive enjoyable music.

Thanks for sharing your talent with us. As drummers we get caught up on what thing "ought" to sound like for a particular type of music. Whether is a certain snare sound or cymbal sound. We tend to limit ourselves tremendously.

I am a beginning Jazz Drummer and this video is very informative. ❤️ Thank you ❤️!!!

This Channel is incredible!, I finished a practice session then put another hour in off the inspiration from this video alone

I love that the crash has only one rivet, it shows less is more

Great lesson, I will be using this on my playing, thank you very much!

Lovely video thanks. Would you mind telling me what Kit that is A Yamaha ?. Also is it an 18 bass or 20 . Are you using a bass drum riser for the pedal ? Thanks Tim

sounds great! What kind of ride cymbal are you playing? thanks

FLAT EARTH. The Sky IS the limit.

thanks for the drum videos!

The idea of getting colors out of cymbals (and the kit in general) is old, going AFAIK back to bebop in the 50s. I came here looking for a reference to some of the classic drummers back then who used to talk about this kind of approach; how specific sounds translated into certain colors for them. Sadly, I didn't find it here, and would love a few suggestions/references if anybody knows a few - but I definitely stayed and watched the whole video. I love Sci's approach, and this ended up being more inspirational than I thought it would. Thanks Jazz Academy!
