✅ Join our Discord server if you haven't already: adamtanpercussion.com/discord Welcome back to another Let's Watch! Amidst the lockdown here, my Surface laptop and other belongings got stolen from my car two days ago... So now I'm looking at a tiny tablet instead HAHA 😂 anyway thank you for always submitting such awesome performances to the discord! Let me know what you thought of today's videos below ⬇️ #TheStudioFamily

[@JesseGuo]

F for your stuff ;_;

[@thunderbrian-pf7db]

can you help me out a bit, im planning to buy a marimba mallet, should i buy vicfirth m113 (medium soft) , m114 (medium) or m115 (medium hard), ive used medium hard normally , it will be my first marimba mallet that i buy

[@laytonhiebert]

Hey Adam, thanks so much for watching our video! We had a great time putting this piece together, and I appreciate the comments and critiques!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thanks for sharing and you all did great!

[@nickwilliams6187]

The crazy long solo with most of the notes on the white keys sounded so so good. I know how hard it is to be accurate when you don't have a lot of black keys in a long run like that and he crushed it. Wow. Reminds me of Teddy Brown

[@breadddie]

watching that university group perform makes me so happy... i love those somewhat smaller percussion pieces and i want to go to college sooo bad and be able to perform more stuff like that !!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

That was one of the reasons that made me sign up to percussion in college too! You'll love it 🥳

[@JacobMillerDrums]

Hey everyone! Thank you so much Adam for reviewing my tape! In terms of the snare grip I had the right grip in practice but I guess I was just stressed out so I went to a more drumset grip lmao, either way, I'll definitely apply what you talked about!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

You still did great man, props to you for preparing well :)

[@JacobMillerDrums]

@@AdamTanPercussion Thank you so much!

[@ryanphelps9773]

@@JacobMillerDrums, you played really well man! What I would recommend with the Timpani playing is to have a looser grip to the point where you can basically have someone come and just pull them out of your hands. Will make a nicer and fuller sound. Another thing I would recommend is to try and lift your mallets back up after you play, so focus less on the down and more than the down. Will make more of a nicer sound. Still played really well though. Also if you're wondering, I'm studying a Bachelor of Music at UTAS.

[@ItsMrBozToYou]

I feel like a lot of the technique/hand issues you brought up in the first video would be instantly fixed by having gear at the right height for his body/lowering himself. The marimba especially could probably come up about 4 inches. Sitting behind the timps would help some too. Really solid playing, though! Snare grip especially was very relaxed.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Possibly lowering himself would help too yes!

[@kennyl6193]

Hey just found this channel. I'm a mallet player and I love the advice you give regarding the marimba techniques with the upstroking and playing palms up instead of thumbs up (French grip). My techs always tell me this and it's cool to see you talking about this in your video! Keep it up!!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you Kenny that means a lot to me!!

[@shawntrrttll5359]

Adam you should definitely check out Snare Drum Tryouts for any Drum corps groups. They’re pretty insane! 👍

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ok I'll have a look!!

[@shawntrrttll5359]

@@AdamTanPercussion here was one of the auditions I looked at and there should be several floating around since im assuming most of them have to submit one through vid for this summer. Hope you enjoy! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZbPd6OVbbODb8U

[@lolzorgfykys]

man idk how you produce such good quality content and get like... no views. these are pretty fun :) nice to see some canadian people too, i've heard UofL is pretty good!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Hahaha such is KZbin life 😅 thanks for watching! 🇨🇦

[@hectorshutty1294]

I really want to post one of my auditions for a middle school

[@AdamTanPercussion]

You should 🤠

[@starwarsmastermind]

I know for timpani most use French grip over in the US

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ah ok I didn't know that, good to know :)

[@AnDream109]

I don't know if the french grip was intentional though since the snare and mallet grip was also very turned out. And it looked very stiff for a french grip. To me, french grip should feel more like stevens, very relaxed.

[@karlwilker579]

Can confirm.

[@yantraaji2981]

never been this early

[@codexone2194]

Question for the discord: I'm a violinist but I'm interested in joining your discord. Are you open for a string musician? Or is it percussion only?

[@danieldavis2049]

anyone can join! there is no requirement!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Yes it's for anyone ☺️ see you there!

[@MrGrizzlyy]

WHERES ALL MY DISCORD FAN AT!?
