Franklin's Tower by The Grateful Dead (Steel Pan Cover)
I saw "Franklin's Tower" performed by Dead and Company in 2021 in Philly. A rainbow appeared over the whole stadium when they played it. Needless to say it was amazing and it's been a staple in my repertoire ever since.

      Thank you! I just used the original Bach sheet music that can be downloaded through ISMLP or a google image search. I tried 2,3, and 4 mallets but ultimately settled on 3 because it gave me the ease of only holding 1 mallet with the right hand combined with the texture of adding the bass mallet to the left hand.

      Bach was a very busy man in his time. His musical IQ exceeded that of more than a thousand men combined, surpassing Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin, as well as Bartok, Debussy, and Shostakovich. Sadly, their music and the music of all the great composers will be wiped out if there is a World War III. Even Anton Dvorak's music

      They play samba, but you play other rythm as i said. Your guitar and bass players are playing dotted quarter notes followed by eight notes comping rythm which doesn't belong to samba. If your reference is Bola Sete and Guaraldi,combo, try to emulate their comping.....@@DettraMentalMusic
