From the desk of Elizabeth Ficalora
Tuesday, 10:28 a.m.
Dear Fellow Drummer,
My name is Liz Ficalora,--Berklee graduate, PASIC Master Class Clinician 2011, teacher and working professional drummer, percussionist in Nashville, TN. And I have a question...
Has this ever happened to you?
Have you ever gotten a call at the last minute for a fill in gig that you needed to write drum charts for…
…and the gig starts in an hour?
Or you landed a job with the hottest road band in town, that is leaving for Chicago in 2 weeks!—and the guitar player hands you a stack of CD’s with 97 songs that you have to know perfectly…
If you've faced a situation like this, then...
you'll be very excited to hear about an incredible
How To Book that I'm about to share with you!
Announcing the release of
"How To Write A Fast and Easy Drum Chart."
A simple how to method to Writing Drum Music for cover and original songs.
Written for exclusively for Drummers
How to Write a Fast and Easy Drum Chart"
"People gladly pay me $65.00 per hour to personally help them write a drum chart...
... and I'm the best person to help YOU!"
I am the originator of this method and am the only one teaching it.
It was developed out of a need to write a song chart fast and that it would be easy to read every time I had to use it.
Other drummers may use a similar technique but what makes this method stand out from the rest is…
… the fact that I wrote it down and created a simple step-by-step system.
This method is needed for the working musician and is not available anywhere else in an easy to use form.
And I'm proud of my accomplishments -- but I'm not telling you all of this to brag, but to show you that my system is...
Industry Tested in "Music City, USA"--Nashville, TN And is Being Used by Session and Touring Drummers Every Day...
and they tell me this method is a must have for all working drummers!
What Professionals Are Saying About
“How to Write a Fast and Easy Drum Chart”
“Why didn’t I think of this? What a simple and easy method”
And…
“I never thought of writing charts that way”
(and in case you’re wondering, yes, they did purchase my method right away.)
Endorsed by Louie Bellson
How to Write a Fast & Easy Drum Chart is useful and uncomplicated yet musically correct. I recommend it for all drummers, whether they think they are composers or not. Because, in reality, we are!
Back in 1994, I was working 40-hour week at a disgusting day job, living in a small apartment.
I was running a local band that was not working much and not getting along with the guitarist on top of that.
And then it occurred to me...
Why not move to Nashville and be a little closer to the music industry and get into a real road band?
One month later I got an audition for a country road band and they hired me two hours after the audition.
While I was still on a high they handed me 97 songs on 6 cassette tapes and said learn all the songs in order, copy exactly like the record and we are leaving for Chicago in two weeks so be ready!
Right then and there I knew...
IF YOU WANT TO BE A WORKING DRUMMER,
YOU HAVE TO LEARN TO CHART!
So over the two weeks I developed a fast, clear and easy charting method that I could read at every gig and play without making a mistake.
TODAY I am making that method available to you.
Believe me; I’ve been in the EXACT same spot where you may be in right now…
…As you saw, I was the drummer that got the last minute gig and the one who landed the road show that was leaving in two weeks.
Sure, I was happy to have a job, but as you can imagine!
I didn't have time to write out all the measures of drum notation.
I knew I didn’t have time to write out or find the Nashville Number System charts (and if you've ever worked with those charts, you know that they are not even written with a drummer in mind anyway.)
I had to think and act quickly to develop a method so I could write a chart real fast and be able to read clearly and accurately at every club gig.
"With a bit of help, absolutely anyone can write a drum chart...
... without reading bar after bar of music and play the song EXACTLY like the record"
This charting system is a simple 12 step guide to writing a drum chart for cover and original material.
It was designed to help develop the techniques needed to write a simple and clear drum chart so it can be played accurately every time.
It is THE method to use if you are in a situation where you have to play in an hour and a drum chart it not available.
After reading this method you will be able to write a simple drum chart, for cover and original material.
Drummers and composers alike will benefit from my “real world” experience and learn the difference between simple book knowledge and actual road tested wisdom.
"My method is the best and easiest way to start writing a drum chart...
... and that is why I have decided to share this method with YOU!"
"Discover how to write a simple, easy drum chart faster then you ever thought, using very little drum notation.
... and how you can start learing the method in the next three minutes!"

Liz,
Your method of charting is very easy to use and easier to follow than number charts.
Thanks!

Your charting system is KILLER!!! It really makes it much easier to get the chart written up, and even easier to read! I've been handed 26 tunes, many of which are originals, for this new group, and I'm charting and reading faster than I ever have before!
Good for you!!! Only wish I'd thought of this myself...Ya know...Music notation pads are for "Writing Music"...but, your stuff is truly a "CHART" What is should be!
Feel free to use any or all of my note in your ads.....
All the best, Paisano!!!

"Liz's system is presented in a concise and well organized manner.
Although every drummer has their own approach to this necessary and
invaluable skill; Liz's approach is a great introduction to the steps
needed to get started. The playing examples are clean and well recorded
and the methodical layout of the book makes learning 'fast and easy'!

Tried the system yesterday and it is great! Terrific to see a visual of the whole song on one half a page. Also showed my teacher and he loved it - said it was very "clean".
I look forward to working with your approach more and may have some questions.
Thank you for taking the time to document it!!
