THE BEAT

One bar, and 32% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 31-37, 39-45 and 77-83, and 1 more place -- 32.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is Constance?

112 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Constance hard to play on drums?

52 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

103 bars, about 3:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 28 exercises over 9 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Constance?

6 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 38 and 8 more.
