Product Description
This is the sheet music for THUD's staple bucket percussion piece, "Classic Buckets," which we play at our various gigs throughout the year!
The piece is written to be played on inverted 5-gallon buckets, which we modify by removing both the handles and the raised rim around the base of the bucket. The different "beats" (unique looped groups of measures) are virtually the same as in the video (linked below), though since this video was filmed, we've added a slightly new ending and a part in the "Jungle" beat where we raise our arms, click our sticks, and yell "THUD!" together!
In the sheet music, different lines in the staff correspond to hitting different parts of the bucket/stage: top (E5), rim (C5), side (F5), chair (D5), floor (G5), and stick click (C5, but these only occur during the count-off and "Jungle").
