Petite Suite

$8.00
By

A 1989 publication, ‘Petite Suite’ is a duet for early intermediate snare drummers. But it’s not just a “straight” snare drum piece. In it, Kettle introduces developing players to the use of different areas of the drum, a variety of different strokes and the notation used to indicate these variations. This is not only an excellent pedagogical tool, but also a charming piece!

Rudimental Rascals

$8.00
By

Rudimental Rascals, dedicated “to Solo and Ensemble Festival Adjudicators Everywhere,” includes some great musical jokes. The tempo marking is “a shaky 108”; the piece begins with an audible count-off in the wrong rhythm; the players strike themselves and each other; a stick is dropped. But it’s not just fun! The piece is also challenging technically and musically.

Timpani Playing in the 21st Century

$32.00
By

Timpani may be simultaneously the most demanding, the most exciting, and the most satisfying of the symphonic percussion instruments – when they are played well. If not, they can be exactly the opposite. A great timpanist, probably more than most conductors, can influence the overall sound, rhythm and articulation of an orchestra. This book gives insight into every aspect of timpani performance, and every player should read it.Foreword by Bob Becker
