Questions

What BPM is Leere Worte?

155 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 Leere Worte hard to play on drums?

56 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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

169 bars, about 4:22 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 25 exercises over 7 sittings, about 23 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.

How many fills are in Leere Worte?

7 fills to learn, played 11 times: bars 1, 11, 29, 56, 72, 99 and 5 more.
