Katinka - Drumset-Trio

A piece for three drummers, which has its challenges. Rather driven in terms of tempo, the piece builds up with sixteenth note grooves, á la Clyde Stubblefield, to a more complex sequence with metric modulations. It then moves in a kind of 'Latin feel' into a double-time feel. A piece that does not get boring for the listener.
