Description
Bakoua is meant as a contribution to the series “Percussion Brasil”. This is the reason for the comment ….up to 10 players. This ensemble size is based on the material mentioned and the extension of the sound spectre and the rhythms spectre resulting thereof (cf. Siegfried Fink, Percussion Brasil ZM 21010). Other than that, this composition can be performed by two mallet players with or without drum-set accompaniment. The parts and score contain additional chord symbols for improvisation purposes. The piece lasts for about 3-4 minutes and is therefore well-suited to be used in music schools. Furthermore, it introduces the rhythm and style of a dance of the Antilles islands which was called rumba-bolero in the 1930’s.
