Tears for 4 Concert Toms
$6.00This work for four concert toms will challenge a percussionist’s rhythmic accuracy and expressive capabilities. The more I study this piece, the more fascinated I become with it. It is engimatic in that this lyrical, sorrowful music (as can be deduced from the title) must be expressed through rather unconventional instrumentation. Clearly, the performer must internalize the music to the point where he or she is capable of making four tom-toms sing in a manner in which the emotional content of the music is unquestionable to the listener. -Jason Baker, Percussive Notes
