Questions

What BPM is Marigold?

107 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 Marigold hard to play on drums?

66 out of 100: demanding, mostly on 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?

145 bars, about 5:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 50 exercises over 16 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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 Marigold?

17 fills to learn, played 78 times: bars 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 72 more.
