Joaquin On Sunshine - Percussion Ensemble And Rhythm Section

Joaquin On Sunshine by Jim Casella is a creatively-titled piece for a large ensemble of 15-17 players (the extra players are preferable if the marimba parts can be doubled). It has a festive, soulful Afro-Cuban flavor and is thickly scored with a full complement of Latin rhythm section instruments piano, bass, drumset, timbales, congas, bongos, and shekere. Typical "strong" beats are rarely where melodic or rhythmic emphasis aligns. This emphasis on syncopation and inner-beat rhythms make it an excellent piece to practice groove and ensemble awareness. Joaquin On Sunshine would make a great closer for larger percussion ensemble concerts. This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
