Questions

What BPM is ...hospice?

93 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second 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 ...hospice hard to play on drums?

66 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 47 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

97 bars, about 4:10 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 36 exercises over 11 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high 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 ...hospice?

15 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 4, 8, 22, 23, 24, 31 and 17 more.
