English term

cop the melodic curve

English to Russian Other Music
There were things in there I had never thought about playing on the drums. But then as I started to play it with people, I thought, "Ah, I can double this little bassoon lick". So the process took over and opened up all these possibilities for me to have more things to aspire toward being able to play. If I couldn't play every note of the melody, I could at least ***cop the melodic curve***. So that pushed it to the level of where it is on the recording.

Это из речи барабанщика.
