Composers take advantage of this fact however, and often write more complicated parts for snare drums that are more rudimental and technically demanding. The lateral movement involved in playing the tenor drums often makes it difficult to maintain a nice tone. When moving between drums, the player must not change their vertical approach to each drum. The sizes and weights of both the snare drum and tenor drum cause some limitation of movement.

A crab step is marching side to side while keeping the entire body facing forward and the feet moving across each other. While widely considered to be the best way to march sideways for the battery percussion, there are challenges in doing the crab step correctly. The player must be able to consistently support their drum and carry while maintaining excellent posture and pace without wobbling.

This can be incredibly difficult on the tenor drums especially, because they are bigger and heavier. The heavier weight of the tenor drums can make the instrument extremely difficult to march. It is absolutely essential that players of this instrument be prepared to build the strength and endurance to carry this instrument. The techniques involved in playing each instrument are pretty distinct. One feature of playing the snare drum is learning traditional versus matched grips.

A matched grip is holding the drumsticks the same way in each hand, which is both hands over the sticks, facing downward. Traditional grip involves the left hand being under the stick facing upward, and the right hand remaining over the stick facing downward.

While traditional grip allows for more exciting visuals , which is vital in the competitive world, technically speaking, matched grip is the easier to play of the two. Tenor drum players solely use matched grip when playing, while snare drum players often need to learn both. Playing the tenor drums involves techniques called sweeps and crossovers. Sweeps are moving a single hand between two drums and require training to do so cleanly.

Crossovers simply involve crossing one hand over the other. Re: Snare vs Tenors vs Basses Posted: Wed Dec 29, pm AWA wrote: Each is difficult for its own reason: Snare generally has a choppier book, in addition to the demand required of playing on such an unforgiving surface.

I am in the same boat with everyone else about them being the same. I played snare all 4 years of high school and freshman year of college on a pretty good college line, and switched to tenors this year sophomore.

When talking to high school friends, they usually ask why I "stepped down," and I have to explain that it's actually not a step down, it's just different. Different skills. And when talking to family inquiring grandparents or whatever they usually say "oh wow, that's like a promotion" 5 drums vs. I wouldn't say that any one is harder than the other. They are each any entirely different beast, and it's extremely frustrating to see snare drummers think they are the beez-kneez because they are snare drummers, or for other people to look and watch and kwadz and be like "woah dude, like 5 drums!

Easier to hear dirt than on tenors Snares- Easy stuff: -Only playing on one drum -Snares give better rebound than tenors, generally speaking, easier to play on -No "X-axis", as Bachman will say. There's no movement or motion to their playing. There are many of them, and if you miss, it sounds like crap -Rims. Nuff said -Different amounts of rebound around the drums, with 3 and 4 being extremely hard to play good diddles on.

Even playing on just the one or just the spock is harder than playing the same thing on a snare. Take some choppy parts albeit not snare-level choppy, but nowadays tenor parts are starting to really mirror the snare parts more and more I mean at the high school level, it's different unless it's like a really good high school.

All I've been practicing so far is snare, and I want to broaden my options. So here I am, in need a few exercises to get used to tenors, to really get used to the transition from drum to drum more this than getting used to the strokes.
