It was at a flute convention, of all places, where the composer learned how to beatbox. Greg Pattillo, the flutist of the ensemble Project Trio, taught a roomful of (mostly) flute players how to make a few sounds, and she couldn't believe how easy, and effective, it was! She figured, if a random bunch of adult flute players can do this, it should be a piece of cake for students. Inspired by this new-found knowledge, she composed 7th Street Beat, writing beatbox percussion into the parts of all the instruments. The sounds imitate percussive effects normally made by a drum set. The beatbox vocal lines are optional - they are reinforcements for the beatbox sounds in the string parts. Also optional (but highly recommended!) is the improvisation section starting at m. 49. Don't tell the students any rules about what notes to play or not play - simply offer them the opportunity to make up whatever they like, to show off their abilities and musical personalities!.It was at a flute convention, of all places, where the composer learned how to beatbox.

Built from primitive sounding rhythms and modal harmonies, this intriguing work opens with an ominous introduction that leads into the first statement of the main theme. Educational opportunities abound in this energetic piece, including some easy two-part counterpoint between the 1st violins and 2nd violins/viola. Primitivo, which is correlated to Orchestra Expressions Book 1, or to most first year method books, is certain to capture the imaginations of students and audiences alike! (2:10).
