Latin Composition Contest – sponsored by Tycoon

You asked, and we listened. We’ve released a collection of new instruments, including marching percussion and specialty latin instruments. We know there are a number of cowbell aficionados that will be very happy.

To celebrate the release of our new instruments we’re running a Latin Composition Contest – – Sponsored by Tycoon PercussiontycoonLogo

We are thrilled to have pianist, record producer, and composer, Israel Tanenbaum as the judge for our contest.

Entries should be between one and three minutes in length. The composition should utilize a combination of at least three of the new latin percussion instruments, and be comprised of an introduction, interlude and ending.
