It is our hope that this particular form of notation spreads through the hand drumming music community. Most hand drumming notation sites use "X"s and "O"s, or boxes with long illogical explanations for handedness & technique. Also, they're usually incomplete (don't include all the drum & bell parts), or aren't accurate enough to get the "feel" of the music.
Thus, we offer this for posterity's sake.
All repertoire below is free, though it is HIGHLY recommended that you read David's study guide first.
It will greatly help in understanding this unique notation.
