Questions

What BPM is Zu Spät?

Is Zu Spät hard to play on drums?

60 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 56 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

90 bars, about 2:34 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 12 exercises over 4 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, floor tom and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
