Program Notes
Written for the Santan Junior High percussion class, Combo Meal is designed to be a flexible composition for early percussion programs or schools that desire to introduce students to percussion ensemble. It is a large percussion work arranged to ensure that every part is heard and contributing to the ensemble whole by means of careful orchestration and effective textural variation. Both keyboard and non-pitched percussion sections are featured independently, layered passages allow new voices and patterns to be introduced individually, and full ensemble passages are scored for excellent voice transparency. The piece can be performed with a range of players and uses instruments commonly found in a school band room.
