Development Trends And Prospects Of Drum Performance In Jazz Art

Abstract

This article discusses the role and prospects for the development of the drum in music, particularly in jazz art. Every musician has a unique set of instruments suited to their individual style. Dixieland jazz and rockabilly are characterized by the smallest drum kits, while in genres such as metal, fusion, and progressive rock, drummers typically use much larger sets that include a wide range of components: in addition to the main drums—two hi-hats, additional cymbals (china, splash), and more. For metal and hard rock, musicians often use a double pedal connected by a cardan shaft, which alternately strikes one or two bass drums. Furthermore, the constant evolution of the drum kit is not only linked to musicians, designers, and musical styles but primarily to advancements in the technology of instrument creation
