Anatomy of a Drum Solo is a two-disc footage of Rush drummer Neil Peart, presenting live and in-studio performances discussing his approach to soloing. Taking der Trommler, a drum solo recorded in September 2004 in Frankfurt, Germany as a framework, Peart presents the concepts and technique behind each segment of this nine-minute drum solo, which is a feature of each Rush live performance.
Anatomy of a Drum Solo also features:
- Two explorations - completely improvised workouts at the drums, each over thirty-minutes long,
- A never-before-released solo recorded in Hamburg, Germany in September, 2004,
- "O Baterista", Neil's Grammy Award-nominated solo, from Rush in Rio tour,
- Two Rush performances from the Frankfurt 2004 concert, all shot from the perspective of the drum cameras.
Bonus material:
- Camera Option: during Peart's performance of der Trommler, the viewer can choose between the program edit and two isolated camera views,
- Alternate Edits: during parts of Peart's analysis of Der Trommler the viewer can choose between the program edit, or an alternate edit with the playing example shown full-screen without Peart's commentary,
- Audio-only tracks: Momo's Dance Party and Pieces of Eight, composed and performed by Peart, which can be accessed at various points in the program,
- Interview with Paul Northfield, Rush co-producer and engineer, and Lorne Wheaton, Peart's drum technician,
- Two Rush performances from the perspective of the drum cameras,
- A previously unreleased solo from Rush's 1994 Counterparts tour.
