Just discovered this (1st October 2023 Australia).👍👍 I spent a considerable time as an Army percussionist (Mainly drums) I've read the expression "Untimed rolls" for Timpani. Have noticed a number of timp players do a little "rush" to finish a roll on their favored hand. A difficulty I have encountered from time to time is playing a roll under a pause and trying to cut off with the conductor. Sometimes got a little lost as to where my hands were at. One orchestral drummer suggested I think triplets, thus avoiding any unbalanced sound in the roll. 'Thievish Magpie' comes to mind I pretty much play a roll the way you do. A lot of of extra pressure on high volume as you said, and slower agitation at low volumes. I have never really gone into the rhythmic groupings the way you have demonstrated. I tend to tense up at times on certain rolls even though I produce a pretty good sound. I'll be back to check out more of your stuff.🥁

Roll bases can be tricky to determine. There are lots of good theories out there. If it sounds, looks, and feels good, it's a winner!

Yes, I would like to make a open roll (double-stroke) roll video. Thanks for watching!

Absolutely the best video on buzz rolls anywhere! Thank you. Could you do one on double stroke rolls? I am having a lot of trouble playing ‘O Canada’. In one MuseScore version there are 64th note rolls for 1 and 1 1/2 and 2 beats, so 16, 24, and 32 hits. I can’t come anywhere near this, but would like to know the correct technique to learn slow and work up to say 104 bpm. Thanks in advance, love this channel.

Wow, thanks! Glad you like it. Yes, there is a double-stroke (open) roll script in the works. Not sure when that'll come out. For now, happy rolling!

Hi there. Years ago I was in a band close to an American Army Band when they played their National Anthem. Because the tune is not in strict tempo the open rolls did not sound good at all. The 'blend' was all over the place. Maybe some drummers were playing faster/slower than the next guy. My opinion was it would have sounded much better if they had all played closed rolls.🥁
