Double Stroke Triplet With Crotchet Accents

In this lesson you will be learning some very simple Accent placements for the double stroke triplet. In all of the exercises presented on this page you will only be accenting on the numbered counts but due the double stroke movement this can get quite difficult. In all cases you will either be accenting the first or second of a double stroke movement, meaning you will be playing a high stick and a low stick over two eighth note triplets. Remember when accenting to make the note with the '>' symbol above it louder than the rest. You can achieve this by lifting your stick slightly higher than normal and pushing down with it a little more.

Various different combinations of quarter note accent have been given below and feet have been included with all exercises. If the feet are throwing you off feel free to remove them until you are comfortable with the hand part. Remember to use the single stroke sticking throughout.
