THE BEAT

One bar, and 14% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 49-55, 57-61 and 87-92 -- 13.5% 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 Requiem?

175 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 Requiem hard to play on drums?

69 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 88 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

169 bars, about 3:51 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 53 exercises over 14 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, 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 Requiem?

13 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 20, 23, 24, 32, 47, 48 and 17 more.
