Tiberius-Metal Grade 5
Tiberius the metal groove we learned last week, in which i need to practise starts on the tom and moves onto a quarter note groove, usually played quite slowish and heavy like.
Blues rock-Rollin'
Blues Rock-Rollin' is the grade five piece we were looking into today- I found it hard to pick up right off the spot, so its something i'll definitely have to go home and practise. This piece I especially will need to practise as its for an exam later on this year.
The first two pages (above) of just groove- no time signature changes at any point, however, loads of off-beats and open and closed hi-hat changes making remembering the beat difficult. Something that when you pick up and can remember is very easy. the occasional fill and not necessarily swing patterns but the hi-hat patterns do differ. The first page (top left)- There is a bracket around the second note of the first bar- indicating to only play it once the first time around. Further on down the same page there is a notation saying "To Coda" with a little symbol next to it- that indication marks to go to the coda location on the forth page after you've played the first page the second time around- basically just a short cut that saves writing lengthier amount of tablature. so that indicator, indicates to go to the indication. The pattern right at the bottom play as "R,L,L,R" on the hi-hats.
The next two pages (below) the third page is like the solo page, where for the first good few bars is a developed 16th note snare to tom pattern, then it changes to one par following bass and guitar then into another bar filled with whatever fill you want (so long as it fits).
The fourth page is back to groove, however, there are indicators to go back to the very first page- "D.C.al- Coda" the "C" stands for "cap" meaning to the top, so basically you just go back to the beginning of the song- skipping out any notes in brackets as they've already been played once etc.
Below is a development variation of the 16th note snare fill on page 3 something that also needs practise and developed in anyway.
