Therefore, Trinity’s Drum Kit Exam Pieces 2020-2023 books will be valid indefinitely (subject to copyright) and any planned updates will be announced at least 12 months in advance. Trinity will be gradually amending the covers on these books upon reprint to ‘from 2020’, however there are books in circulation with the previous date range. In those cases, the change to syllabus arrangements overrides the dates printed on the cover of the book Contents: Act One Beginners (Chris Burgess) On the Right Foot (Chris Burgess) Caribbean Sunset (Mike Osborn) Blues for Inclusion (Clark Tracey) Grunk Funk (Mike Osborn) About Time (Clark Tracey) Broadway Bounce (Chris Burgess) Gunning for Funk (Mike Osborn) In Seine (Mike Osborn) Soul Babes (Clark Tracey) Three Wise Monkeys (Chris Burgess) Count Me In (Clark Tracey) Lava Lamp (Chris Burgess) NY Nights (Chris Burgess) Cherry Blue (Mike Osborn) Gently Does It (Clark Tracey) Triple Decker (Chris Burgess) No No Ñañigo (Mike Osborn) Review: Best music books to learn from. - Perfect present for my son who learning to play the drums. He said these are the best books to learn from. Review: Flams, drags, ruffs and rolls - Challenged by Grades 03-05 (separate review) I went back to basics with Initial-Grade 02. The content is excellent, starting with rudiments, followed by exercises that incorporate those rudiments, followed by the performance piece. Performance notes are included for each piece. The layout is clear and easy to follow. Audio tracks to accompany the book can be downloaded from SoundWise without issue - there's an access code at the back of the book. A great deal of thought has been involved in producing this series of excellent books - essential for anyone working towards exams. I drum for fun and am enjoying working through the grades - even though I won't be taking exams. I recommend these books for those starting out as well as being great revision for established drummers to hone their flams, drags, ruffs and rolls!

The best drum grade book I've had so far
Between this and Rockschool, I definitely recommend this Trinity series more. The grade 1 and 2 songs are much more challenging and teach me techniques compared to Rockschool at the same level, which is just boots and cats 4/4 bass/snare/hi-hat tunes. If you're serious about learning, pick this.

The high standards of Trinity continue but there is a small but....
I've worked with Trinity music syllabus' for many years. The new books, so far look excellent and a great variety of songs and exercises. My only small gripe is the downloadable tracks are not Android friendly. You can neither access them via the mobile web and there is currently no app. This means an extra layer of faff, downloading your music to PC and then on to what ever device is your preference. Hopefully they will adapt the rock and pop app to work with these tracks too.
