ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Here I am to Worship on drums

95 bars, 5:17, at 72 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick and nothing else.

55 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 32 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- G -- 3 exercises, about 19 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- F -- 3 exercises, about 20 minutes.

55 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 35 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

95 bars, about 5:17 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 32 exercises over 9 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

11 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 5, 18, 22, 30, 31, 33 and 17 more.
