    How to Read Music

    Your best bet would be to familiarize yourself with the basics of music notation: learn what quarter notes, eight notes, etc. are and learn how to interpret written music. These rules apply to all musical instruments and genres, including marching band.

    For the instrument you are looking for (I assume you mean quint toms, not tenor drum- a tenor drum is a tall snare drum and does not consist of five separate drums), the only thing special you need to know is that the notes on the top of the staff refer to the highest pitch (smallest) drum and the notes on the bottom of the staff refer to the lowest pitch (largest) drum.

    Thus, the quint toms will be notated from highest to lowest by reading the various lines of the staff from highest to lowest.
