A simple, easy cadence for your high school drumline, based on the world-famous UMass Drumline Cadence.
UMass-ish is a simplified, high school friendly take on the 2009 UMass cadence.
It keeps the recognizable moments, including Exercise 8, Double Beat, Check Patterns, and the essential Monkey Beats, but the writing is rebuilt to be far more playable.
The goal is simple: teach real rudimental control, timing, and performance habits without overwhelming younger lines.
It sits on the harder side for high school, but nowhere near the difficulty of the original.
The Sibelius file is fully editable: change stickings, add splits, adjust tenor writing & bass sequences, or tweak dynamics to fit your group.
$3
This Sibelius file gives you full control to edit or rearrange for whatever your marching percussion ensemble needs.
Customize parts, adjust difficulty, add splits, change stickings, or reshape the flow of the entire exercise or cadence.
Everything is laid out cleanly so you can print parts as is or tailor them for pads, full battery, mixed instrumentation, or developing players.
Use it to keep your library flexible, modern, and reusable year after year.
Every Free Drumline Beats Edu Pack contains full sets of score & parts PDFs and a full set of play-along training videos.
Instrumentation varies by composition/arrangement. Some pieces will not have cymbals or may include keyboards, etc.
