Premier Drum Majors Ceremonial Mace

The ceremonial Drum Majors mace is seen as a symbol of music and military discipline around the world. The position of Drum Major originated in the British Army

with Corps of Drums in the 1600’s. Military groups performed mostly duty calls and battle signals during that period, and a fife and drum corps, directed by the 

Drum Major, would use short pieces to communicate to field units. With the arrival of military concert bands and pipe bands around the 18th century, the position 

of the Drum Major was adapted to those ensembles.
Traditionally, a military Drum Major would be responsible for defending the drummers and bandsmen whilst maintaining the discipline, dress standards and 

choreographed marching movements for all Corps of Drums members.
The Drum Majors position is earned and he or she is held in very high regard. Sometimes upon retirement the drum major would be presented with his 

mace as a keepsake and commemoration of their service.
Beautifully crafted and hand finished, Premier Maces feature an impressive large head with raised facets in brilliant chrome surmounted by a crown. These attractive, 

finely balanced maces are available in two lengths, with either cords or chains as standard. To be the correct length a mace should fit under his or her chin by one or two inches

Book Review:

In this book, Dean sets the objective of giving a complete beginner the fun task of playing a pipe band 

drum score. The player is guided, in a very novel step by step way, how to achieve this target. 

Nothing is left to chance and it is done in a very user friendly and almost conversational style. 

The book does what it says on the cover.

By DrummingMad Education

“Hey, I want to learn that drumming” could easily be the way it goes. Every year at every pipe band performance, there are little kids and big kids alike who wish to embark on a journey, the

journey of becoming a pipe band snare drummer.

QuickStart Pipe Band Snare Drumming has been written with the absolute beginner in mind. The first introductory steps are all contained in this one simple book. By the end of the book, the beginner will have been shown all of the techniques to be able to play a simple ¾ march. It is detailed thoroughly enough for anyone to learn these first steps alone. Teens and adults with a higher learning discipline can complete the book over 2 weekends part time or a single weekend if undistracted.

Diagrams and pictures are all used to illustrate and support explanations, especially so that young ones will benefit. QuickStart Pipe Band Snare Drumming can of course also be used as a study guide supporting 

the guidance of a regular tutor. Mums and Dads can also teach their own youngsters if they are too young to read, no prior knowledge of drumming is required. To get the first steps right from the start is so important at this early stage. “Practicing mistakes” is a very real threat and takes a lot of work later on to eradicate. QuickStart Pipe Band Snare 

Drumming helps the beginner practice and develop the good habits instead of the bad ones. QuickStart Pipe Band Snare Drumming has been produced as a low cost solution for pipe bands to stock ready to hand any new beginner who happens to walk through the door. It is also an 

affordable choice for anyone preferring to “test the water” before committing time to a regular series of lessons. QuickStart Pipe Band Snare Drumming is the ideal first book for the budding pipe band snare drummer.

DRUMMING MAD QUICKSTART PAD

You can even use the StartPadTM directly on your snare rum to soften the volume of playing whilst retaining a realistic rebound feel. This allows beginners to become comfortable playing in a corps environment, without being too self-aware or having the potential of disrupting other players - important factors in the early stages of a long drumming career!
