Overview
Magic Johnson, named by Nick Lopez in the Facebook Xymox Percussion group, puts triplets and diddles together like bread and butter. The exercise is very nicely balanced and it provides plenty of opportunities to work on various skills.
The odd meters in the piece do a great job of helping players develop both hands evenly and that also requires a little more mental focus so you get a two-fer there! Additionally, there are plenty of heights/dynamics to work so performers really get a chance to develop multiple disciplines while playing Magic Johnson.
