Wambold-African Drums (SP)-P

African Drums by Charly Wambold for percussion quartet. This piece follows the tradition of African drum music, including the typically African groove feel and 12/8 rhythm which is quite unusual to Europeans. However, the piece does not pretend to be authentic African music. The individual parts must groove and play together exactly to provide the forward impulse of the music.

Instrumentation:
djembe, talking drum (bongos, conga), caxixi, drumset, cowbell (or cymbal bell)
