Four on the floor funk tune for strings?! How cool is that! This piece grooves from start to finish containing true funk rhythms, challenging your students, but well worth the effort!.
The title says it all. This riff-packed funk piece offers an exciting opportunity for students to explore the rhythms and sounds made famous by Sly and The Family Stone, James Brown, and Earth, Wind and Fire. A sample solo is provided, but fea- tured soloists should improvise their own solos using either an A-minor pentatonic scale (A, C, D, E, G, A) or an A-blues scale (A, C, D, D≥, E, G, A). While soloing, keep it simple and focus on creating short rhythmic riffs using two or three pitches, or choose a riff from the piece and embellish it. Drummers are encouraged to add to the written groove.
