I did this years ago with my fellow drummers and our teacher gave me the part with the small drums. I felt so bad about it, because I wasn't very good with self worth and always felt "less" good compared to my fellow students. Now I watch this video and recognize that it was just as challenging as the others and I could have focused more on having fun. I had fun though :) Thanks for uploading.

Thanks for sharing your story! That is a good lesson for musicians in an ensemble - every part matters no matter how seemingly big or small, it’s all a part of the picture and is important in its own right. Glad you had fun with it, great times playing music!

Well done! Your transitions were so smooth, and you stayed together really well. The dynamic contrast was great, and you did a good job with tempo changes.
