Description

This number will make everyone in your program a soloist. Written for 13 to 15 players or more if parts are doubled. Composed for an oversized percussion class, this composition has everything. Layered parts, written out solos for mallets and the battery or backgrounds for the student who wants to improvise. There is even a section that can be done with pots and pans, trash cans and more. Some mixed meter, but lots of up-beat syncopations that students and audience will enjoy. This is a wonderful concert closer.
