Persistent earworm alert CCCXX

This is yet another earworm that's entirely of my own making.  For the last three days, I've had a recurring dream.  I'm at a coffeehouse or cafe where a poet chants repeatedly, "Rosie plays the castanets, and Sammy plays the bongos."

That mantra becomes a prelude to a concert by former family cats Rosie and Sammy performing on those instruments.

The audience receives the concert well each time, but I'd still like to know...

...Why those instruments?  I enjoyed listening to music many times with Rosie and Sammy, but neither of them gravitated toward pieces in which percussion instruments dominated...

...Or did they?  Perhaps my subconsciousness is finally recognizing it.
