It became a number one hit in the United States on the Billboard Hot 100 and Dance charts. Since its debut, the song has re-appeared in countless movies, television programs, and commercials. "Keep me movin; keeps me grovin’ with some energy..." FUNKYTOWN! NOTES TO THE DIRECTOR Although Funkytown is based on a syncopated rhythm, itis two-measure repetition and well within comfortable ranges for beginners. There is an optional synthesizer bass part that should be performed ‘one octave lower than written. Listen to the original recording of this song to analyze the appropriate timbre for the synth bass sound, The timpani part is optional throughout the piece. Percussion 1 should be two (or three) players: hi-hat (or suspended) cymbal, snare drum, and bass drum. Percussion 2 should be played on a set of agogo bells. Should this instrument not be available, substitute two cowbells pitched approximately a minor third apart.ru L Approx.
