Combocom Series – Flexible Ensemble

Combocom Samba-Salsa-Son Music for Flexible Ensemble (Score & Parts)

This volume focuses on Latin American music from Cuba to Tierra del Fuego .

It presents highly contrasting arrangements of nine original pieces, each with an authentic sound typical of its country of origin.  Samba thrives on guitar and guiro, Salsa needs a trumpet, Son requires timbales and conga; but you can also try them out on completely different instruments.  The spotlight always falls on rhythm and joie de vivre, sometimes with a dash of melancholy thrown in.

Loved all over the world, Latin American music impresses with its enchanting melodies and its pulsating rhythms.  Our collection is an attempt to offer more than a melody and written out piano accompaniment.  It is the right place for anyone who has always wanted to play Latin American pieces in a small combo.  The titles range from sambas and tangos to son montunos and salsa pieces.  The arrangements can be changed, augmented, and expanded ad libitum.  As a rule, there are two melody instruments, voice, piano, bass, and some suggested rhythmic patterns.

Score with chords and 5 parts:
Melody I in C (Voice, Guitar, Flute)
Melody II in C (Violin, Oboe, Mallets)
Melody I in B-flat (Clarinet, Soprano Saxophone)
Melody II in B-flat (Trumpet, Tenor Saxophone)
Bass (Double Bass, Bass Guitar, Cello)

“combocom” is Bärenreiter’s series of music for variable ensemble.  Each volume contains a full score for piano, keyboard or guitar, melody parts (in C, B-flat, and E-flat) and a part for bass instrument.

“combocom” also offers suggestions for using percussion.  It thus permits a wide range of instrumental combinations: if the violin takes the top part, the saxophone can play the counter-melody and the cello the bass while the guitar strums the specified chords.

But many other combinations are possible too, whether at home, at school, or in a “genuine” band, combo or buskers’ ensemble…
