Here’s the lovely bit.
Listen once, count with the click, then play the displayed pattern. Cycle kick, closed hat, snare, high tom, kick, floor tom, snare on the sixteenth grid for four beats, follow the written ending, then count four silent recovery beats. Play voices sharing a position together. Stick choice, limb assignment, and dynamics are not scored. Pattern positions count from 1; 1.5 is the & of beat 1, and 1.25/1.75 are e/a. Kick at 1; Closed hi-hat at 1.25; Snare at 1.5; High tom at 1.75; Kick at 2; Floor tom at 2.25; Snare at 2.5; Kick at 2.75; Closed hi-hat at 3; Snare at 3.25; High tom at 3.5; Kick at 3.75; Floor tom at 4; Snare at 4.25; Closed hi-hat at 4.5; Kick at 4.75. The pattern lasts 8 quarter-note beats; leave gaps silent.
Today’s little goalPlay the 8-beat pattern at 48 BPM with at least 80% recall and precision.
