William Kraft's French Suite is a classic collection of dances for solo percussion (mulit-percussion). The score contains a suggested set up as well as performance notes. French Suite is one of the most famous and most commonly performed mulit-percussion solos and is very appropriate for recitals and juries. Robert Winslow was the first soloist performing French Suite in Los Angeles.
