Hey guys,

I'm taking my Grade 8 next weekend end and Ive been researching about what to say regarding the musicianship questions, You have got to describe the genre (Background, History etc ) of anyone one of your pieces, and say who influenced that style (drummers aswell as other musicians) and thats about it. So i have got to describe one of the following;

Samba funk,
Jazz Funk,
Funk Fusion.

Thanks everyone !
 
Hmmmm, could you say something like;

"this piece is (insert piece type), originating from (insert wherever that may be). Many successful modern drummers compose in this style of music for instance (drummer name). similarities between his compositional skills and this piece indicate he's a key influence"

That would be my best guess at what to say :p

Hope this helps? George.
