Questions

What BPM is Sturmtrupp?

182 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 Sturmtrupp hard to play on drums?

75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 46 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

189 bars, about 4:09 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 57 exercises over 18 sittings, about 25 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 Sturmtrupp?

19 fills to learn, played 29 times: bars 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 22 and 23 more.
