Playing style of ethereal drum

How to play the ethereal drum correctly;

1, the correct grip of the drumstick: use your index finger and thumb to be slightly lower in the middle of the drumstick, that is, about one third from the end of the drumstick. After holding it firmly, the other three fingers gently hook the end of the drumstick, so that the palm has a small room for movement, the palm is facing down, the forearm is slightly open, and the drum must be facing each other, so as to make a good hitting posture.

2. The correct use of power: when knocking, you should use wrist power to drive the drumstick to knock, but not forearm power, otherwise the knocking will be inflexible, resulting in broken sound, and the knocking power should not be too large, which will cause broken sound.

3. Correct landing position: When hitting the bass and treble tongue, be sure to hit the tongue accurately, and don't hit the root or side, otherwise it will cause serious deviation. Whether the position of the drumstick head hitting the tongue is accurate or not determines whether the pitch is accurate or not, and whether the timbre will be deviated or not depends on whether the hitting strength and landing time are controlled accurately.
