Kick'n Easy (Digital Copy) Fambrough

Kick'n Easy (Digital Copy) FambroughWritten for seven players, this composition bounces back and forth between two four and four four time. With the two four sections being a repeated motif, as a bridge between the mallet melodies and the un tuned percussion. Scored for xylophone, glockenspiel, snare drum, bass drum, timpani, tom toms, and cymbal, the mallet parts include sixteenth note patterns that are easy to learn. This would be a wonderful number for not only the performer, but

suspended cymbals

electric keyboard

"TRIBAL NIGHT MOVEMENTS" says it all

and includes all of the individual pieces listed under the 'NYSSMA® Selections' collection shown at the left of the screen

and "The Circuit" written for ten players: orchestra bells

The instrumentation calls for two batteries

and a car brake drum

Bring it all together with rhythmic intensity

This percussion piece was composed in the style of the Broadway show

Rhythm patterns are passed (or “rolled”) around amongst the drums with accompanying punctuations from the cymbals

This is another wonderful collection from composer and arranger John Russell
