Tempo & The Beatles – Track One -meanspeed conjecture view of "SGT PEPPER’S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND"

April 19, 2008 Ian A Schneider Comments off

The tempo mapping – the cataloging of the tempo, or speed, of each Beatles song on their album Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band continues with the first track of the post-Revolver era of contemporary music. The opening song makes brilliant use tempo acceleration, as the song accelerates, in a sinusoidal way, from a section of renewal speed (85-89 bpm) to emthusiasm (90-97 bpm) to natural (98-105 bpm). The average tempo suitably sits in the middle of enthusiasm – could there be a better way to begin an album? For over 35 years total, Phil Collins and Pat Metheny, both huge fans of the Beatles, began their concerts at this speed – Phil with “Hand In Hand”at 96 bpm and the Pat Metheny Group with “Phase Dance” also dancing around this speed that is indicative of the musician having the most confident of anticipation.
