Jack Bell is considered one of America's greatest snare drummers, serving as the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra's Principal Percussionist for over thirty years and the coordinator of Percussion Studies at Georgia State University for thirty four years.
His primary teachers and influences were Harold Firestone and Cloyd Duff.
This style of rudimental swing drumming bridges the gap between the old N.A.R.D. traditional interpretation and the 26 Standard American Drum Rudiments and the rudimental style used in today's modern drum corps. This 30 minute DVD features Jack Bell demonstrating various aspects of the Rudimental Swing Drumming and performing the five Harold Firestone original snare drum solos found in the book located at the bottom of this page.

Harold was a prolific writer of percussion materials, a gifted artist and a mentor who gave many young lives the principles of systematic thinking, self-discipline and goal setting
This book, "Rudimental Swing Drumming", contains five of his original solos and a duet. All of the material exemplifies his distinctive, eclectic swinging rudimental style and can be heard on Mr. Bell's Rudimental Swing Drumming DVD found in this section.
