Questions

What BPM is Will I See You Again??

70 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is Will I See You Again? hard to play on drums?

73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 61 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

84 bars, about 4:48 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 30 exercises over 11 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Will I See You Again??

5 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 5, 6, 7, 8, 48, 57 and 8 more.
