Program Notes

Caden Hong, a young student from Honolulu, was inspired by percussion ensemble music and made it his goal to commission new works for his group. With the support from his teacher, Zachary Morita, he was able to gather funding and connect with current composers. I am thrilled to be a part of this commissioning project for the Hawaii Youth Percussion Ensemble.

Performance Notes

Each player should have one drum and one cymbal. Dry drums are recommended. If using toms or other resonant drums, consider muting heavily so that the non-accented notes do not get in the way of hearing the primary themes. Performers may use any cymbals, but a variety of sounds are preferred.
