Questions

What BPM is Walzer?

86 BPM, in 3/4, 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 Walzer hard to play on drums?

29 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 11 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

69 bars, about 2:24 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 16 exercises over 4 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid 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 Walzer?

2 fills to learn, played 2 times: bars 45 and 61.
