Questions

What BPM is Once More to See You?

94 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 Once More to See You hard to play on drums?

22 out of 100: straightforward, and the one thing to watch is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 0 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

67 bars, about 2:51 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 6 exercises over 2 sittings, about 20 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
