West Side Story "Impossible Solo" Transcription No. ５ (Patreon)

The part where he plays those cymbals. It's hard to imagine how you are supposed to move from the sheet but the sticking order itself is not really special.

The part where he plays triplets with bass drum and tom toms is also difficult. If you cut this part into short phrases, you can notice that there are many of his frequently used phrases. When you find those, it would make it easier to sing or remember the whole phrase. 

After the tom tom part, it will be incredibly  fast snare solo. This could be so much faster and harder than the last single stroke because it's more complicated. I will explain the detail on the next post. 

Until next time, Keep Swingin'!
