Three Camps syncopated - 01

Yet another variation on the traditional snare drum piece Three Camps, adding a simple syncopation on the third beat of the first, second, and fourth measures of each phrase. It's kind of hip:




Memorize this and throw the page away. Play it as written, and as triplet rolls (with doubles on the unaccented notes), and with the 16th note RLLR-LRRL sticking at that link. And practice it starting with the left hand.

BONUS which I didn't bother writing up. Maybe another time. Use these stickings— they cover everything that happens in the exercise:

First measure: RLL RLL RRL RRL or RLL RLL RRL RLL
Third measure: RLL RLL RLL RLL
First measure, second camp: RLL RLL RRL RRL
First measure, third camp: RLL RRL RRL RRL
