Application of the Strokes.



As no two musical compositions are alike, it follows that there can be no fixed rules to govern the application of the strokes.

The following are a few examples of the more generally used applications.


Straight or Common Playing.




It is rather difficult to get this application smoothly, and a considerable time should be given it.


Waltz or Three Beat Time.


This is the easiest of all the stroke applications, as there is only one stroke to the beat. All the different strokes can be used effectively in waltz time, but the following is perhaps the most characteristic. Note that the first beat in a measure is plated with an up stroke.
