In the next twenty exercises, notę the addition of two "ghost notes" (notated within parentheses) on the sec-ond and fourth 16th-note grouping. Here again, the left hand moves from hi-hat to snare drum on the second and fourth 16th-note grouping for the accented afterbeats and the additional ghost notes. For optimum effect, all ghost notes should be played softly, balanced by a strong accent on 2 and 4 and a firm bass drum.

The open hi-hat adds flavor, but don't attempt to add it until you've mastered the basie pattern.
