Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
yes!. there are 27 total that you need to know for high school!. Some schools don't require all of them, but most require 27 to be known!. There are too many to explain and tell you about, so i'd just look up percussion rudiments on google!. some common easy ones are 'flame tap', 'double parrididdle' and 'lesson 25'!. there are plenty more, but you need to learn them all!. good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The rock drum pattern where the hihat is doing 8 notes the snare is beats 2 and 4 and the bass drum is on 1 and 3!.
The basic jazz rhythym is basically triplets on the ride and the hihat on two and four!.
And the bossa nova which is hard to explain so look it up on youtube!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Other basic drum rudiments are:

1!. 5, 7 and 10 stroke rolls
2!. Double paradiddles
3!. Flams
4!. Buzz Rolls
