sticking

törröttävä, työntyvä (present participle of)
A sequence or arrangement of drum notes to be played with drumsticks.
1997, Gary Cook, Teaching percussion (page 72)

Too often the beginning student finds it more difficult to observe the stickings when reading single beats or duple beat divisions (e.g., quarter notes and eighth notes in 4/4 time) than if he or she alternated freely from hand to hand.
