The percussionists should make sure to always stay balanced in a supportive role under the mallet players. The Cowbell can be held in the hand, striking the Cymbal when a crash is needed. All players need to keep the tempo driving, and don’t be afraid to get into the groove.<br /> The Conga part is a watered-down version of a traditional pattern. The sounds are as follows: &lt;br/&gt;<br /> H – heel (hit the conga in the center of the head with the heel of the hand) &lt;br/&gt;<br /> T – toe (bring the rest of the fingers down to the head after the heel hits) &lt;br/&gt;<br /> S – slap (try to catch a “pop” sound with a slightly cupped hand; the other hand should still be laying on the head; this sound takes a lot of practice) &lt;br/&gt;<br /> O – open (hit the edge of the head with the fingers held flat) &lt;br/&gt;<br /> <br /> == Works for Percussion by this Composer ==<br /> {{Hearnes, John Works}}<br /> <br /> == Reference ==<br /> <br /> [[Category: Percussion Ensemble Works]]<br /> [[Category: Indeterminate Instrumentation Works]]</div>
