KLarc / Joan of Arc
Concept(s)
- variant of "Karc / Joan of Arc"
- simple rhythm phrase (ga do ga da) repeated with variety of different sticking options
- sticking options arranged simple -> complex, and with increasing hand-speed
- "KLarA" and "KLarC" patterns involve three parts in different time signatures (normal, 1/2, 1/4 speed)
- final phrase has shorter loop to emphasize tension
Structure
each line commonly played 4x

CicLAvia 2018

Grand success but CicLAvia is still a logistical nightmare. Tabling CicLAvia until I can get a grant to help me pull it off.

If I could figure out audio recording, I could tackle Kawatsura Shizzle Reel while in Tokyo.
