Bahumba
Bahumba is a nonsense word but a no-nonsense selection for concert band. The word stems from the sound of an idling car. Just like an engine, an ensemble can attain a smooth groove even if "uneven" in terms of pulse. While the percussionists are often asked to provide this groove under the melodic lines, here they ultimately break out with a feature that essentially places a percussion ensemble within a concert band piece. Great for teaching 5/4 meter. (2:43)
