[@bennettmercurio]

i'm not lol. why do you say that tho?

[@yourlocaldrumaddict]

@@bennettmercurio your writing is good, I can tell you are making progress as a musician, but your wind writing is a lot better than your percussion writing.

@@yourlocaldrumaddict alright, thanks! do you have any advice to improve my percussion writing?

[@yourlocaldrumaddict]

@@bennettmercurio It’s really hard to explain, but basically the best way to write percussion is to play the brass recording and improvise along with a practice pad or somthing. Beginner percussionists can’t do it as well because they haven’t read as much music. So with percussion you have to be familiar with lots of different styles of writing. So it really comes with experience. I don’t know how a non percussionist can improve writing, so I Geuss just find an experienced percussionist willing to help you. You can send musescore files by going to “file” and then “save as”. That should help you. Good luck!

@@bennettmercurio If all else fails, listen to a bunch of dci Drumlines and write somthing similar to what they are playing.
