Questions

What BPM is COQUETA?

160 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is COQUETA hard to play on drums?

47 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 23 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

153 bars, about 3:50 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 39 exercises over 10 sittings, about 26 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 COQUETA?

12 fills to learn, played 27 times: bars 9, 17, 33, 41, 42, 43 and 21 more.
