Program Notes
Review
"A L'Espagnole" is a short work for multiple percussion and piano in a Spanish style. The instruments required are xylophone, castanets, tambourine, and triangle. The piece begins with a short statement of the theme on xylophone. The player then moves to the castanets, then to the tambourine and finally to the xylophone. A D.S. takes the player back to the xylophone for a second statement of the theme and the coda finishes the piece with the player back on castanets. This is a short work, but there is much here for young students to sink their teeth into. "A L'Espagnole" will help familiarize students with these four instruments and help them learn to move smoothly from instrument to instrument. - Tom Morgan, February 1999[1]
