Questions

What BPM is We Bow In Its Aura?

215 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 We Bow In Its Aura hard to play on drums?

77 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 49 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

157 bars, about 2:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 59 exercises over 20 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in We Bow In Its Aura?

17 fills to learn, played 74 times: bars 9, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 68 more.
