Learn How To Play The Single Ratamacue
The single ratamacue is the first in a series of related "ratamacue" rudiments. It's simple structure is made up of single strokes combined with a few drag strokes. This pattern is typically played with a triplet feel, and that makes it work well within Jazz, Latin, and other world styles of music. Here is the basic structure:
