Difficulty: Beginner
Steam is a beginner friendly Cha-Cha style tune that is around 3mins long. The 3 distinct phrases feature 8th notes through whole notes and melodically feature the G Major scale. The D section can be extended to feature some select soloists.
The name Steam was inspired by the steady groove provided by the drum set and it’s similarity to the sound of a train moving down a track. The signature rhythms and cascading rhythms in the B section make this a fun and distinct tune for any band to enjoy. Adding cowbell, guiro, and congas would be an easy way to add to the style of this piece.
This piece is also available in the collection called “6 Compositions for Early Steelband” and the “Early Steelband Jumpstart Pack”
