Questions

What BPM is Marigold And Patchwork?

165 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 Marigold And Patchwork hard to play on drums?

49 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 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

228 bars, about 5:32 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 35 exercises over 9 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, 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 Marigold And Patchwork?

9 fills to learn, played 48 times: bars 16, 20, 48, 60, 63, 64 and 42 more.
