Using The China For The Right Hand In A Groove

In this lesson I will present a list of grooves where the right hand is playing the China. There won't be anything particularly new, the grooves will all be based on previous ideas, the aim is just to familiarize you with how notation will look for this kind of groove. You will generally move your right hand here when you want a loud and aggressive sound and they generally play slower note values such as the quarter note. This is very common in hard rock, metal and related genres.

Listed below are ten grooves where the right hand is played on a china. I have used various level 1 concepts.
