Lattes on the House - for percussion quintet

Chris Roode

Lattes on the House is an introductory piece written by Chris Roode to teach the application of beginning rhythms to a percussion ensemble. Written for three sizes of conga drums along with claves and tambourine, this five-player instrumentation can be easily expanded by doubling or tripling up on each part. And congas aren’t required either; various sizes of frame or hand drums can be effective too, as the ensemble builds grooves together and also accompanies each section as it struts its stuff in a lengthy solo section. You bring the espresso, have the students bring the steamed milk, and in no time you’ll be enjoying Lattes on the House.This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
