I bought this book to work on my concert snare drumming and to prepare for college auditions. I highly recommend! Great notation. It's easy to read unlike some of the handwritten styles too!

This book challenges the player with "orchestral" and "French" styles of snare drum playing. Composed around the same time, it's a good contrast to Cirone's "Portraits in Rhythm." Both emphasize the need to move away from rudimental exercises and etudes to prepare for orchestral repertoire.
Delecluse-12 is essential!

If you aren't learning snare solos, etudes, or technique from this book, then you need to. Anyone who calls themselves a percussionist should own this book.

This is an absolute must have book. Pushing students to the absolute maximum, this book is practically a requirement for the serious percussionist. It finds and corrects errors with correct pedagogy and expands the rhythmic knowledge of students. Etude 9 is one of the most, if not the most, difficult piece of music in all of snare drum repetoir if played up to speed. So don't wait, buy this book!
all serious percussionists need this

There are a few books that stand above all else for the snare drum. 12 Etudes is one of the most important orchestral style books in the repertoire. As far as I am aware, pretty much all college percussionists (not drum set players) must play at least one or two solos out of it. Number 9 is famous/infamous (depends on who you talk to) as being one of the most difficult pieces to play in all of snare drum repertoire. These are fun pieces to play because they push your limits as a growing student or keep you on your toes as a professional, yet they are also very musically satisfying. As I'm sure your aware, there are a limited number of orchestral snare solos that are both musical and technical; so buy 12 Etudes.
