AlfredBeginning Drumset Method Book (Online Audio/Video Access)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Alfred's first-step drumset method, book plus online audio and video. For someone sitting down at a kit with no prior playing experience.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Absolute beginners on a full kit, working without a teacher
- Learners who need to hear an exercise before attempting it
- Cheap self-study before committing to paid lessons
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers who already read notation and play basic beats
- Snare-only, marching or hand percussion students
- Anyone who needs live feedback on grip and posture
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Method book, not a songbook
Skills build in order. Jumping ahead to the fun parts leaves holes that show up later.
Detail 03
Beginning level
Starts at stick grip and basic notation, so no prior reading or kit time is assumed.
Detail 04
Written for drumset
Focus is hand-and-foot coordination across the kit, not rudiment study on a single drum.
Detail 05
Printed book
You need a music stand at the kit. Reading off the floor from the throne does not work.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01The online access code is in the book; a used copy may be redeemed already
- 02No drums, sticks or practice pad come with it
- 03Budget for a music stand if you don't already own one
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need a real drum set for this?
It's written for a full kit, acoustic or electronic. A practice pad alone won't cover the bass drum and hi-hat foot parts that the coordination work depends on.
02Is the audio and video extra?
No. Access is included with the book and used online alongside the printed exercises.
03Do I need to read music first?
No. It's a beginning method, so drum notation is introduced from the start rather than assumed.
04Is this for kids or adults?
Either. It's a beginner course, and an adult working consistently will simply move through the early material faster.
