Performance Notes
Time for 4 is a quartet for friends who like to drum. The opening 2-measure theme expands in dynamics and transforms into longer phrases. Each player is given the opportunity to play a solo before they engage in a short ‘conversation' that returns to the opening theme and builds to an energizing conclusion. Maintaining an effective overall-all balance is important because every percussion instrument speaks differently, some naturally projecting stronger than others. During the solo sections, the accompanying parts should strive to stay soft enough to ensure that the soloist is clearly heard without having to ‘overplay’. It would be helpful for Player 4 to mount the cowbell, tambourine, and block on a percussion rack to allow the instruments to fully resonate.
