Beginner Drum Music

If you're relatively new to the drums, or new to drum charts, I have got some beginner drum music to get you going right here on this page.

I've gone through our digital drum charts library and sorted out the easiest tunes to play on the drums. From Kool & The Gang's classic "Celebration" to Sting's peaceful "Fields of Gold," these songs are sure to get you off and running with playing sheet music.

I use many of these charts all the time with my drum students. Playing drum charts is just an invaluable part of learning to play the drums. Actually getting into the feel of a song and recreating the beat will improve many of your skills.
