Re: RE: [Harp-L] paradiddles

[Pierre <slavio@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm also wondering?

Is it strictly a coordination thing or does it develop breath speed.

Having tried them, I find I trip up at high speed. Also blow-draw patterns 
seems inherintly slow, how much better can it get with practice.

Pehaps you could give an example paradiddle and tell us how fast you can do 
it or if you have a chance one of these days, an example would be great.

Pierre.
