Alfred’s Music Playing Cards: International Drum Rudiments
“We are thrilled and honored that Alfred’s Music Playing Cards: International Drum Rudiments was nominated for Best Percussion Accessory of 2015. Based on the success of our Alfred’s Music Playing Cards: Classical Composers, we introduced this 52-card deck, which is divided into four suits, each representing a different rudimental family: Roll Rudiments, Diddle Rudiments, Flam Rudiments and Drag Rudiments. Each joker contains a history of the Standard 26 American Drum Rudiments, the PAS International Drum Rudiments, the Hybrid Drum Rudiments and suggestions on how to practice. The cards feel great, they’re really fun and informative, and they make a great gift for drummers. Our dealers love the fact that the cards work both as a fun, educational tool for students and teachers and as an add-on item for percussion customers. The feedback from our dealers has been incredible, and we are proud to be recognized with this nomination.”
