Program Notes

Review

Designed for the conservatory and advanced high school percussion group. It Is written in the Jazz idiom using a set of dance drums as well as vibraphone and marimba. Divided into two main sections; the first is a medium riff tempo, the second is an up-tempo two-beat section. At one point in the piece there is a "Battle of drums" between the dance drummer and the rest of the ensemble. - PAS Staff, December 1965
