Questions

What BPM is Sorry?

92 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 Sorry hard to play on drums?

45 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 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

61 bars, about 2:39 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 6 exercises over 3 sittings, about 19 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, snare and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
