THE BEAT

One bar, and 15% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25-27, 29-31 and 41-43, and 1 more place -- 15.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

Questions

What BPM is Meine Lieben?

88 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 Meine Lieben hard to play on drums?

85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 74 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

104 bars, about 4:44 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 51 exercises over 15 sittings, about 27 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 Meine Lieben?

18 fills to learn, played 34 times: bars 4, 8, 12, 15, 16, 20 and 28 more.
