Just Like That

just like that pg1

Just Like That is a percussion quintet scored for one concert tom and one wood block per player.  Based on variations of a traditional cascara pattern, this energetic and rhythmically driven work weaves through several time signature changes and dramatic dynamic contrasts.  The original pattern is repeated, offset, fragmented, and manipulated in a variety of ways to created an ever-changing texture as underlying melodic lines are created in the concert tom voices.  This is an excellent work for high school or college percussion ensembles to work rhythmic alignment and precision.  This piece is sure to be an audience favorite and also works well as a collaborative work with a school dance program.
