Paradiddle

Paradiddle

The Paradiddle is named after the sound the sticks make as you play it. ​This is what a Paradiddle looks like written with drum music. R = Right hand L = Left hand.

Tips:

  • Practise slowly at first keeping the sticks at an even height without the accents
  • Make sure the double and single strokes sound the same
  • Add the accents and increase the speed. Slow down if you feel tension in your hands
