The Right Way and the Wrong Way: 6/8 Marches

Written By Pipe Band Drummer on Wednesday, Oct 14, 2020 | 01:54 PM

 
There are two main reasons why pipers always complain about the way drummers play 6/8 marches. First, drummers don't pay attention to the underlying "dot/cut" subdivision. Second, drummers play the quarter/eighth rhythm (commonly used when playing six and seven stroke rolls) as two equal notes. These two issues, if resolved, will make every pipe major much happier!
