Here are two ways to play the zil pattern 7s. The first is the method I teach in intermediate:
7s
e&a1e&a2e&a3e&a4e&a5e&a6e&a7e&a8e&a
RLRLRLR RLRLRLR RLRLRLR RLRLRLR
The second pattern is known as left handed sevens and though it still uses four strikes with the right hand and three with the left, the pattern of the strikes is different which gives it a slightly different sound.
Left handed 7s
e&a1e&a2e&a3e&a4e&a5e&a6e&a7e&a8e&a
LRRLRRL LRRLRRL LRRLRRL LRRLRRL
As always on finger cymbal patterns, if you are reading this via email, you will need to visit the blog by clicking the title link in order to see the patterns properly lined up with the counts.
