			Organization: In the table of contents, the main chapters are listed in order of time signature: quarter time, cut time, and more complex time signatures such as mixed meter. The chapters progress in terms of difficulty, with the first few subsections dealing with quarter notes and downbeats and the latter few involving dotted rhythms, sixteenth note triplets, and dynamic control. Part Two and the dynamic control section of Part Three are strangely short, with Part Two only consisting of five etudes, with the fifth etude being in 4/4 instead of cut time. The dynamic control section has two full pages of assorted exercises but lack forte-piano rolls which I feel players would benefit from practicing. Part Four of this book includes duet etudes which could be played with an instructor and a student or with possibly two students at once.

			Content: Most of the exercises seem to work on rolls quite a bit, but there is not really a thorough explanation of rolls and how to perform one. There is a distinction made between a buzz/multiple bounce roll and a roll utilizing double strokes, but no real explanation of how to perform either roll which is surprising considering the nature of the book. It should also be noted that there are no tempo markings on any of the etudes, in terms of BPM or tempo direction which can make performing certain rolls harder than necessary.

			Uses: This book would be good for a middle school to high school-level student to use to practice rolls. Most of the exercises in this book may be too simple or not complex enough to properly challenge a college-level student, at least in an orchestral context when approaching rolls. For preparation in a concert band or marching band, this etude book will give students enough material to know what to do when encountering rolls in musical compositions.

			Rating: While there are plenty of roll exercises in this book that will provide good rudimental exercise for a student, there is hardly any explanation on rolls themselves and the execution of them. Without introducing concepts such as roll bases, how to perform a double stroke roll, refining multiple bounce rolls, or playing zones on a snare drum, much more is left up to the instructor to teach regarding rolls than the book provides. 2/5.
