Drum method book with colour system
We gaan Drummen - Groene Stok is part of the LeonDrums Methode, a simple way to learn drumming developed by drum teacher Léon van der Geest since 1999. In this drum book, colour use is central, so you can quickly see which part of the drum kit is meant.
The method works with coloured levels: Wit, Geel, Groen, Blauw, Oranje, Rood, Paars, Roze and Zwart, with drumsticks in the same colour. The notes on the staff use those colours as well, making instructions clearer during lessons or while practising at home.
Groene Stok within the LeonDrums Methode
Within this setup, each colour represents a fixed part of the drum kit. Groen refers to Tom 2, while the other colours are linked to snare, toms, floor tom, bass drum, hi-hat, crash and ride.
This fixed colour link makes the learning process easier to follow, especially if you are still learning to recognise notation and parts of the drum kit. If you are looking for a structured drum lesson method, this Leon van der Geest edition fits that approach directly.
