Guac is Extra
Description
4 players
In Guac is Extra, John Herndon has done a fantastic job of providing an engaging piece for young percussionists to dialog with traditional Latin percussion instruments without their needing traditional hand drumming skills. Played entirely with sticks, the piece contains elements of groove, syncopation, and timbral contrast. The performers also have the opportunity to play solos, which helps develop their ensemble awareness and sensitivity.
Instrumentation: Drums (bongos, congas, timbales, 2 large toms), Suspended cymbal and Acessories (woodblock, guiro, cowbell).
