In Lesson 30, we introduce buzz rolls (also known as press rolls, closed rolls, or simply a drum roll). For all of these exercises, you will need to press the tip of your stick into the head of the snare drum, about an inch or two in from the top edge. With practise, you’ll achieve the correct ‘buzz’ sound.
