Saracubana

Live Performance history: Highlighting its theatrical nature, selections from the score have been performed live, including a showcase titled The Music of BB Cooper at London's Royal Festival Hall.

​

The piece explores a rich sonic world where narrative dance meets musical theatre, heavily characterized by its unique genre fusion. Rather than relying on traditional musical theatre structures, BB Cooper's score features an eccentric, rhythmic blend of Latin beats, jazz, classical movements, and traditional Klezmer music.

​

  • The Title Track ("Saracubana"): A rhythmic, Latin-infused piece that incorporates high-energy Klezmer clarinet work. 

  • "BB Goes Chopin" & "Bach Goes to Mayfair": Infusions of classical composition structures blended into jazz-inflected musical theatre arrangements. 

  • Character Motifs: Pieces like "Fay's Theme and Variations" (a breezy classical flute theme) and "Cool It Mimsie" represent the storytelling arcs of the dance musical.
