Very good ! I gonna lurn this song right now

[@heavyvibes90]

That's awesome! It's definitely fun to play.

[@Gilles-k7i]

is it like a flams?

[@Gilles-k7i]

I do not understand the choking of the note C when it is not played in the first measure, it escapes me, can you explain to me, we therefore stifle the note C D and C? thanks for your explanation

[@heavyvibes90]

I'm not exactly sure if this is what you are asking, but the a# grace note in the first measure is played like a flam. After that it's just regular mallet dampening, meaning striking the next note with one mallet while simultaneously dampening the ringing note with the other mallet. In this case c, b and a.

[@Gilles-k7i]

I don't understand the notes c d c in the cross at the first measure

[@heavyvibes90]

The X is a symbol that indicates mallet dampening, which I described in my previous comment. The X is not to be played, it just shows that the previously played note should be dampened. The X can be placed anywhere in the general vicinity of the note supposed to be dampened, Mr Zivkovic just happened to put them where usually the c and the d is located. I hope that cleared things up for you.

nice

[@heavyvibes90]

Thank you

[@Gilles-k7i]

last question what does *1) and *2) mean at the beginning

[@heavyvibes90]

Footnotes, just look at the bottom of the page the asterisks are on. There you will find ab explanations of dead strokes and mallet dampening.

[@Gilles-k7i]

they are not playing why smother them I understand better then on the first measure we stifle the note b c and b?

[@heavyvibes90]

Yes, the notes you are supposed to dampen are b, c and b again.

[@nolan02499]

The same guy who made ilijas made this

[@heavyvibes90]

You are exactly right, it's from the same composer.

[@nolan02499]

@@heavyvibes90 I am saying that ilijas is super complex but this is fairly easy
