Rosa Passos – Ladeira da Preguiça (Drum Sheet Music)

Featuring Celso de Almeida on drums, “Ladeira da Preguiça” is a song from Rosa Passos’ album Azul (2002), originally composed by Gilberto Gil in 1973.

The intro features a Partido Alto groove, with a samba feel from the first verse’s second part. Playing the right hand on the cymbal at around 96 bpm presents a challenge. Slowing the tempo can help piece everything together. The chorus section introduces a distinct groove related to the Partido Alto, with a cymbal pattern performed with two hands.
