We used our time this week to work on the bridge. As the bridge has a dramatic dynamic drop and a tempo change this means the group have to listen to my drumming as it is the lead of the song, And the drums set the tempo. During the bridge the other instruments drop out and drums play alone for two bars which introduce the tempo and dynamic change. when playing the bridge everyone plays a chord and holds it for 2 bars. With this we wanted to focus on everyone playing at the same time. However our main focus for this lesson was to work on the dynamics to build an atmosphere within the song to also create tention and a build up to the last chours of the song.
as a group we wanted the bridge to sound more open, so as the drummer i used an open hi hat to create this effect. We have set our self a target of two weeks to get the tempo and dynamics up to a standard wich we would be happy to perform.
