Questions

What BPM is Ludens?

132 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 Ludens hard to play on drums?

58 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 27 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

145 bars, about 4:24 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 37 exercises over 13 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, snare, high tom, 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 Ludens?

7 fills to learn, played 9 times: bars 65, 73, 77, 113, 121, 129 and 3 more.
